with surprise with her performance."I think it's a very silly belief that models can't act. And apart from modeling I have also done anchoring, hosting and daily ads. So I knew the trick of the trade. Hence, when this role came my way I took it up as a challenge and by God's grace it's going well. Everyone in my team is also very helpful andsupportive so it never has been difficult."Tell us something about Draupadi's fashion statement. Pooja answers,"Her costumes are beautiful and mainly dominated by the colour red. The colour is considered to represent passion and energy. Draupadi is a feisty character born out of fire and a very strong individual so it's being themed accordingly. The jewelries are also quite lavish and overall I am like decked up in around 25 kgs overall. It actually takes me two to three hours to complete the look and it hardly takes about an hour for the cheerharan post shoot (laughs)."Did she feel any kind of competition,with all actors being compared to the earlier Mahbharat actors? Honestly I'm not under any pressure, for I'm not competing. I m working on Draupadi the way my directors, writers and I feel the best, there is no inspiring. Also the screenplay of each character is differently done in this Mahabharat which makes the show completely different from the earlier one,"signed off the actress.
