Pooja Hegde: “I was such a tomboy”

Pooja Hegde in 'Mohenjo Daro'

Pooja Hegde had never aspired to be an actor, but made her debut with ‘Mohenjo Daro’ (2016).

According to Hindustan Times, Hegde spoke about how she was a tomboy and because of this thought she wouldn’t make it in Bollywood. “I never thought I would get into Bollywood because I was such a tomboy and would never touch make up or wear fashionable clothes. I was not the child who would go into her mother�۪s room and put on lipstick. I would wear boyish clothes and big glasses.�۝

Hedge added how taking part in beauty contests changed things for her.�ʉ��I was participating in a dance show during college, when the pageant people spotted me. When I took that step in my career, things changed drastically. I only started dressing up in a feminine manner after the pageant. Now here I am in the film industry and I am enjoying everything I am doing.�۝ She said.

Now that Hegde has found her calling, she is keen to work with Ranveer Singh and a few others.�ʉ��I really want to work with Ranveer Singh. There is something about his energy which is so amazing. Not just Ranveer, I want love to work with even Varun (Dhawan) and definitely with Fawad (Khan) because he is just so hot!�۝ says Hegde.
