After
having
wrapping
up
a
hectic
series
of
work
commitments
and
Diwali
celebrations,
India's
emerging
pan-India
star
Pooja
Hegde
has
kicked
off
shooting
for
one
of
the
country's
big-ticket
films
-
Beast
in
Chennai.
Backed
by
the
humongous
success
of
Most
Eligible
Bachelor,
the
actress
has
revived
theatres
in
a
memorable
way
and
is
on
the
heels
of
delivering
a
larger-than-life
cinematic
experience
with
Beast.
She
will
be
stationed
in
Chennai
for
over
a
couple
of
days.
What's
exciting
is
that
the
upcoming
black
comedy
action
film
marks
her
return
to
Tamil
cinema
after
Mugamoodi.
Apart
from
the
Tamil
film,
the
gorgeous
powerhouse
has
a
slate
full
of
big
banner
movies
that
are
at
various
stages
of
being
filmed.
Her
forthcoming
films
include
Acharya
with
Ram
Charan
and
Chiranjeevi,
Radhe
Shyam
with
Prabhas,
SSMB28
opposite
Mahesh
Babu,
Cirkus
with
Ranveer
Singh,
Bhaijaan
with
Salman
Khan.
Given
her
magnetic
pull
at
the
box
office,
the
star
performer
has
been
signed
on
by
some
of
the
most
celebrated
filmmakers
across
various
languages.
Set
to
reaffirm
her
connection
with
Tamilian
fans,
the
crowd-puller
has
garnered
massive
appreciation
for
power-packed
performances.
Revisiting
Tamil
cinema
after
nine
years,
she
is
poised
to
be
welcomed
by
Tamil
viewers
with
great
fanfare
in
Beast.
However,
not
much
has
been
revealed
about
the
character
she
will
be
essaying
in
the
Nelson
Dilipkumar
directorial.
Pooja
Hegde
says,
"The
Tamil
audience
has
been
so
kind
and
enthusiastic
about
Beast.
The
excitement
is
mutual.
It's
great
to
be
back
in
Chennai.
It
is
like
the
epicenter
of
happening
things
in
the
state.
The
highlights
of
my
stopover
in
Chennai
is
that
its
cuisine
is
a
foodie's
dream.
With
the
shoot
of
Beast
resuming,
the
viewers
from
here
have
been
so
connected
with
me
online
that
the
city
feels
like
home.
We
are
working
very
hard
to
bring
the
audience
a
compelling
film."
