'Duvvada Jagannatham' Made Me A Better Actor: Pooja Hegde

Pooja Hegde made her Tollywood debut with Oka Laila Kosam in 2014. The flick fetched her nominations in Filmfare Award for Best Actress and SIIMA Award for Best Female Debutante. The actress then did Mukunda in the same year and recently starred in Allu Arjun’s starrer Duvvada Jagannatham.

Duvvada Jagannatham released on June 23 and is going strong at the box-office. Talking about the flick, the actress said that she is happy with the reviews and with the fact that everyone is liking her role in the flick. She said, “After Mukunda, I got many offers, but I had committed my time to the Hindi film Mohenjo Daro. Even Harish had first approached me for Subramanyam For Sale, but I told him that I have to complete my Hindi film”.

About Duvvada Jagannatham, she said, “The atmosphere was always jovial… not a single dull moment. Allu Arjun is a generous actor and always gives tips in dance and acting. I genuinely feel DJ made me a better actor”. She further added, “My first two films were traditional ones, so I wanted something new as compared to them. Then Harish narrated the story of this film; he said that it was a glamorous role. I also wanted to work with Allu Arjun since a long time — so everything came together with this film”.
