Avantika Vandanapu is all grown up and the internet can't seem to get its jaw off the floor.
The young starlet, known for her roles in Telugu films like Mahesh Babu’s 'Brahmotsavam', Naga Chaitanya’s 'Premam', and Pawan Kalyan’s 'Agnyaathavaasi', has taken social media by storm with her latest appearance in 'Mean Girls'.
The child actor, who became popular for her cute appearances in Indian films, raised eyebrows with her bold grown up avatar as Karen Shetty, a revamped version of Amanda Seyfried’s Karen Smith in the latest instalment of the hit franchise. The actress became the hot topic of discussion after her cool dance video from the new movie went viral online. Sharing old photos of the child star, netizens were in awe of her transformation.
Fans expressed their astonishment in honest tweets that read, “My jaw dropped to the floor just knowing she was in a Babu movie to Mean Girls.”
Another user on X shared their disbelief, saying, “Can't accept the truth that this is the same girl from #Premam & #Brahmotsavam.”
Describing it as "the Avantika Vandanapu lore," another user expressed hope for her return to Telugu cinema, adding, “I hope she does at least one more Telugu movie now that she's hit big.”
Avantika made her debut in the film industry with Mahesh Babu's 'Brahmotsavam' in 2016. After featuring in several Telugu films, she expanded her horizons to Tamil cinema before transitioning to English-language projects, including films like 'Mira A Royal Detective,' 'Diary of a Future President,' 'Spin,' and 'Senior Year.'
While the 'Mean Girls' reboot received mixed reviews, Avantika's role as Karen Shetty garnered praise for her performance.
On the work front, the actress is set to feature in the films 'Horrorscope' and 'A Crown of Wishes'.
