Dhruva
Sarja
is
basking
in
the
success
of
his
latest
venture
Pogaru.
Though
the
film
received
a
mixed
response
from
the
audience,
what
attracted
the
attention
of
the
audience
and
critics
alike
is
the
Action
Prince's
never-seen-before
avatar
as
a
local
ruffian.
His
impeccable
performance
incorporated
with
emotional
elements,
rough
and
tough
characterization,
whistle-worthy
dialogues,
acting
chops
of
other
actors
and
songs
are
undoubtedly
a
few
of
the
many
reasons
behind
the
commercial
film's
big
success
at
the
box
office.
The
audience
who
are
still
in
awe
of
the
movie
are
now
incessantly
heaping
praises
on
the
cast
and
crew
of
Pogaru.
Well
recently,
during
a
media
interaction,
the
actor
shared
his
contentment
with
the
film's
success.
He
was
quoted
by
Cinema
Express
as
saying,
"I
am
excited
with
the
collection
my
film
is
making
and
it's
exciting
to
see
housefull
boards
at
theatres.
It
is
overwhelming
to
learn
that
the
film
has
cash
registers
ringing,
and
has
collected
about
Rs
30
crore
in
three
days."
Interestingly,
the
actor
also
compared
Pogaru's
success
with
one
of
the
songs
of
the
film
'Karaabu'
that
initially
garnered
backlash
from
netizens
for
its
theme
that
many
opined
was
encouraging
women
harassment.
However,
the
song
was
the
most
viewed
Kannada
song
in
24
hours
of
release
on
YouTube.
The
actor
said,
"Initially,
people
made
a
lot
of
comments
about
the
song,
but
later,
they
went
on
to
make
it
a
hit.
We
are
getting
similar
responses
to
the
film.
I
hear
different
opinion,
but
the
reports
are
extraordinary.
A
few
people
who
watched
it
initially,
came
back
with
their
family
to
watch
it
again."
