Pooja Hegde, once a leading heroine in the South Indian film industry, has seen a dip in her career graph in recent times. After walking out of Guntur Kaaram, none of her subsequent films managed to make a significant mark. She had pinned high hopes on Retro alongside Suriya, but that too failed to revive her fortunes.
Despite the lukewarm response to her recent Tamil outings, Pooja continues to test her luck in Kollywood. As per the latest reports, she is now in talks to team up with Dhanush for an upcoming film directed by Por Thozhil fame Vignesh Raja. The makers are planning a quick schedule, aiming to wrap up the shoot in just 90 days. Post this, Dhanush is expected to shift focus to a large-scale project.
Pooja’s immediate next release will be Jana Nayagan starring Thalapathy Vijay. The film has already wrapped its shoot and is expected to garner solid openings, primarily because it is Vijay’s final film before entering full-time politics. However, since the film is a remake of Bhagavanth Kesari, there are concerns that Pooja’s role—originally played by Kajal Aggarwal—may not have much scope unless her screen presence and glamour appeal take center stage.
In the Telugu industry, Pooja seems to be facing tough competition. With a fresh wave of actresses entering Tollywood in the last couple of years, filmmakers appear to have shifted their focus away from her. As a result, Pooja is now concentrating her efforts on the Tamil film space.
Apart from her project with Dhanush, Pooja is banking on her special appearance in Coolie, a pan-India Tamil film. She is also part of Kanchana 4, where she will be seen opposite Raghava Lawrence.
At this stage in her career, Pooja Hegde has set her sights firmly on Kollywood. If even a couple of her upcoming releases manage to strike gold, it could potentially reignite her demand across the South Indian industry.
