Pooja Hegde, the nerd who’s the architect of her own happiness

The actor talks about her almost-decade in movies and upcoming projects like ‘Radhe Shyam’ and ‘Beast’

Pooja Hegde’s line-up of upcoming releases make for almost intimidating reading: Most Eligible Bachelor, Radhe Shyam, Acharya, Cirkus, Beast and Bhaijaan. Her co-stars include Prabhas, Vijay, Ranveer Singh and Salman Khan, and earlier this week, it was announced that she’s also reuniting with her Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo director Trivikram Srinivas for Mahesh Babu’s next. But the actor carries the pressure of these big-budget projects lightly on her shoulders; she insists that work needs to be fun for her, or she’ll find a way to make it enjoyable, notwithstanding the star cast or crew.
