Pooja Hegde was one the top actresses in the Telugu Film Industry. She has acted with almost all the top heroes in Tollywood. A series of flops left Pooja Hegde back in the race and she is aiming a strong comeback. However, she is not helping her cause by demanding huge remunerations.
Till Ala Vainkunthapurramulo, Pooja Hegde used to charge around Rs. 3 Crores, one of the highest quotes at that time and now it is said that she is demanding Rs. 5 Crores for each project. It is known that Pooja Hegde was replaced by Sreeleela in the project Guntur Kaaram which had Mahesh Babu in the lead role.
She is currently in talks with Akkineni Naga Chaitanya’s next that will be directed by Karthik Varma Dandu. The remuneration discussions are currently going on. Pooja Hegde currently has a bunch of Hindi projects with only one being the prominent ones. We have to wait and see whether she can give a bounce back in Telugu.
