Pooja Hegde got rave reviews for her very first film as few critics felt that she would create a sensation like Ileana. Pooja had two releases in Telugu in a span of two months.
Gopikamma song in Mega Hero’s Mukunda made her very popular in Telugu states.
When offers started pouring, Pooja took a break from Telugu Cinema as she got an opportunity to romance Hrithik Roshan in Mohenjo-daro.
Pooja thought that this is a lifetime opportunity to do such a big film in Bollywood, but she didn't calculate how much she could lose in Tollywood because of it.
Pooja is paid peanuts for playing the female lead in Mohenjo-daro, which would eventually take three years to hit the screens. The makers of Mohenjo-daro aren’t foolish to cast a new face in such a huge film.
Any big heroine of Bollywood will charge nothing less than 10 crores to give bulk dates for it. So they have roped in Pooja who wouldn't mind doing it for free.
Pooja could have earned lot of money in the same time in Tollywood. She was contacted by few big production houses of Tollywood recently but she has signed a contract for Mohenjo-daro already.
If this film doesn't give the desired break for Pooja in Bollywood, could she make a comeback in Tollywood? Highly doubtful!
