Pooja Hegde has established herself in Bollywood in addition to making a name for herself in the Telugu film industry over the past few years. Known for her South Indian blockbusters like Duvvada Jagannadham, Aravinda, Sametha Veera Raghava and others, the diva is all set to star in Rohit Shetty’s upcoming comedy drama film Cirkus.
Ahead of the film’s release, the actress – along with her other co-stars – sat for an exclusive conversation with Bollywood Hungama and shared the crazy experience of shooting a hectic song sequence for Cirkus. When asked about her craziest day on the set, Pooja shared, “I think for me it was the last song of the film because there was this one really long shot.
“It was the longest take,” she added. “You had to have like hit the mark before the camera reaches because there are two Ranveers. And it’s all in one shot and it would be like– we would be waiting, just when the camera pans to us we have to do our step. And if one person messed up, we have to start all over again. It was exhausting for him [Ranveer Singh] especially because he was dancing with both of us [Pooja and Jacqueline]. So, he was almost like in every frame.”
Speaking of Cirkus, Ranveer Singh will be seen in a dual role in this Rohit Shetty directorial. Besides Pooja Hegde, the comedy-drama also includes Varun Sharma, Jacqueline Fernandez, Tiku Talsania, Johnny Lever, Sanjay Mishra and Vrajesh Hirjee in pivotal roles.
Cirkus arrives in theatres on December 23.
