Director Harish Shankar is all set to hit cinemas with his latest directorial venture which happens to be ‘Valmiki’ featuring Varun Tej in the lead. And there is buzz earlier that he made the producers of his films spend a crore to get Pooja Hegde aboard for this movie.
While the director hasn’t addressed all that stuff, he seems to have a genuine reason to bring the dusky heroine into this project, by creating a role that was not there in the original. “When people commented that one of the reasons behind DJ movie’s success is Pooja Hegde’s glamour, I got hurt. Taking that seriously, I wrote the role of substance for her now and her character Sridevi in this movie will be a revelation” he says, talking about Pooja’s presence in Valmiki.
All said and done, Pooja Hegde became a superstar in Tollywood after her bikini acts in Duvvada Jagannadham went viral. Since then she is taking Tollywood for a ride with her glamour, but may not be with Valmiki.
