I like competing with other actresses: Pooja Hegde

Pooja Hegde is now inching closer to the top position in Tollywood. She already does have the biggest hits in her kitty. ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramloo’ cemented her position as the top heroine. But she is facing stiff competition from actresses like Rashmika Mandanna who is equally popular and grabbing big films.

When asked about the competition from other actresses she said she loves to compete with them. “Competition is good. It will make one work harder. If there is none, it makes one lazy,” she said. Pooja Hegde is not wasting her time during this lockdown period. She is trying new dishes at home. Also, not missing her fitness regime. Pooja Hegde also revealed that she is training under her yoga guru online. 

After the lockdown period gets eased, she has to join the shoot of Prabhas’s new film and Akhil’s ‘Most Eligible Bachelor’.
