15 minutes! That's all it took for Pooja Hegde to nail a dance sequence in the first take

Grace personified, Pooja Hegde most recently nailed a long dance sequence in a single take owing to limited time available to the team of the Telugu film they were shooting for, on a busy street in the United States of America. The team had only a window of fifteen minutes as the high energy song needed to be shot in daylight. But thanks to eight hours of rehearsals each day for a week, the stunner pulled it off with much aplomb.

Says Pooja, “We had to shoot for the song in daylight, and because it was a busy road, we wanted to avoid rush. Also, the challenge was to get the steps right in a take. Fortunately, director and the choreographer okayed the shot.”

With time, Pooja has risen to stardom after her debut in Ashutosh Gowariker’s Mohenjo Daro, which gathered her immense praise for her performance. The fact that the gorgeous actress has signed three films with big stars of the South film industry including Junior NTR, Prabhas and Mahesh Babu and has been roped in for two films by KriArj Entertainment goes to show that she has talent par excellence.
