After the massive success of her film DJ, which also features Allu Arjun as the male lead, actress Pooja Hegde has significantly strengthened her position in the South film industry, with many top-notch producers queueing up in front of her doors with great scripts in their hands. The beautiful actress has already given her nod to star in a film featuring Mahesh Babu. We will also see her in a special dance number in Ram Charan 's forthcoming biggie, Rangasthalam, and the latest we hear that she has been almost finalized to play the female lead in an NTR film.

To be directed by acclaimed filmmaker, Trivikram, the project is being mounted on a lavish scale. The director was initially keen to rope in Anu Emmanuel for the main female lead role, but after the dismal performance of her film, Agnyaathavaasi, he changed his mind and decided to look for other options. His search ended on Pooja Hegde . The actress has been cast because she has gained a tremendous fan following within no time, especially among youth. She is a fabulous dancer also, which is a prerequisite for the role in Trivikram's movie. Pooja will shortly be seen in a full-fledged role in Bellamkonda Sreenivas' upcoming big-budgeted film, Sakshyam.
