It may be recalled that Pooja posted an update on her Instagram account about her health last November where she said she was “doing for the second time in her life.”
In the pics, she was seen taking baby steps with the help of a walker. It is evident that suffered a serious injury in her leg which was not enabling her to walk.
Meanwhile, Pooja Hegde’s close friends reportedly told the people in the industry that the actor wanted to give herself a break from films and come back stronger post-recovery.
Now, through her friends, it is learnt that she deliberately wanted to come out of projects like Guntur Kaaram as she couldn’t give half-hearted attempts for the film.
Post the success of Ala Vaikuntapurramuloo in January 2020, the actress managed to get praise for her performance in Bommarillu Bhasker’s directorial Most Eligible Bachelor (2021).
However, she couldn’t sustain the momentum further with Prabhas-starrer Radhe Shyam (2022). Later, Vijay’s Beast (2022) fell flat and so did Acharya (2022).
She has been reportedly sidelined from Guntur Kaaram. What bothers her fans is that she is not in proper shape to give her best in the Mahesh Babu-starrer.
