Despite Flops, Pooja Bags Rajini, Vijay, Dhanush

Following the failure of Retro, Pooja Hegde is now acting as the female lead in two Kollywood biggies: Vijay’s last movie, Jana Nayagan, and Raghava Lawrence’s Kanchana 4.

In this context, there is now strong speculation that Pooja Hegde is in talks to play the female lead in Dhanush’s new movie, directed by Por Thozhil-fame Vignesh Raja.

Additionally, reports suggest that an official update regarding this is expected soon, with shooting likely to begin by the end of this month.

Following this buzz, many netizens have responded with surprise, wondering how Pooja Hegde—after continuous disasters such as Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Deva, and Retro—still manages to land big-budget films.

Pooja Hegde debuted in the Kollywood industry with Vijay’s Beast, which ended up as a terrible disaster. She then acted in Suriya’s Retro with high hopes, but it also failed to become a success, and her performance went largely unnoticed.

Despite these back-to-back failures, Pooja Hegde still has a strong lineup in Kollywood. Apart from Jana Nayagan and Kanchana 4, she is also reportedly appearing in a special item number in Rajinikanth’s Coolie.

However, there haven’t been any official confirmations yet. It remains to be seen whether Pooja Hegde will indeed act alongside Dhanush in his upcoming film—and if it happens, how the project is going to shape up in the future.
