After the super success of Ala Vaikunthapurramloo, actress Pooja Hegde is on cloud nine!
She is now a part of all big-ticket flicks in Tollywood, acting opposite Jr NTR, Ram Charan, Mahesh Babu and Prabhas and others.
Cut to Bollywood, where the Saakshyam star will next be seen opposite Salman Khan in Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali directed by Farhad Samji.
While it is natural that actors hike their fees post a super success, Pooja has done the opposite, apparently. The buzz is that the actress has agreed to a drastic pay cut since the offer to star opposite Salman was too big to refuse.
“Pooja loved her role and, moreover she couldn’t resist the temptation of sharing the screen with one of India’s biggest superstars, Salman Khan. She has always prioritised her role, the story and the team she works with over the pay,” according to a source close to the actress.
While some see it as a desperate move, others call it a sensible one!
