Just a year ago, Pooja Hegde used to be the number uno actress in the Telugu film industry. By scoring back-to-back super hits, she became the number one actress in Tollywood. But that is not the case anymore. A series of flops and her heavy remuneration demands made Pooja fall from her top spot.
Last year, Pooja scored multiple flops in the form of Radhe Shyam, Beast, Acharya and Crikus. Now, she is awaiting the release of the Hindi film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. Even this film doesn’t have any positive buzz around it.
Coming to Telugu cinema, Pooja’s next film is Superstar Mahesh Babu’s SSMB 28. Apart from that, she doesn’t have any big projects in hand. It is heard that she is demanding hefty remunerations for each film. By paying less amount, producers can get other heroines like Sree Leela, Krithi Shetty and Neha Shetty, who are in more demand.
Earlier, the same thing happened to Rakul Preet. She pinned high hopes on her Bollywood films and ignored the Telugu film industry. Now, neither Tollywood nor Bollywood is offering her big projects. Film sources predict that even Pooja may fall under the same category very soon.
