If the heroine doesn’t have any problem or the heroine’s father doesn’t have any problem, then why do you have a problem?””And when she gets married and has a daughter, and then she becomes a big star, then also we will work. We will get the mother’s permission for sure,” the superstar added.Further, Salman also praised Rashmika and revealed how, even after breaking her leg, she didn’t cancel her shoots. He said,  “She has given her best. She used to finish shooting Pushpa 2 at 7 pm and would join us at 9 pm, and would work till 6:30 in the morning and go back to work on Pushpa 2. Then, after breaking her leg, she continued shooting with us and didn’t cancel a single day of shoot. She reminds me a lot of a younger me.”
