I dont think Pooja is an outstanding beauty (like younger Aish) or a great dancer like younger Madhuri..she is a strictly average heroine..I mean just a plastic doll..and I have seen some of her Interviews and she is arrogant and snooty. No cares! If tomorrow she doesnt appear in any movie..it wont be a loss to any industry!

To be honest. She is good.. aren't the Audie bored already to see her repeatedlu

her acting is really mediocre, like even avpl the role she barely managed, in radhe shyam agains a decent role though movie was bad, a good actress will manage to stand out, even in such movies sam, anushka, trisha, nayantara stand out

like trisha in athadu

agree, audience is bored because she has nothing else to offer

also industry is so superstitous and she has given super flops with big stars so the jinx sticks

I’m not familiar with south movies at all, but aren’t her roles basically flowerpot roles? Meaning those movies would have flopped with or without her. At the risk of sounding very shallow I think as long as she has her beautiful and young looking face she’ll get offers. She has a fan base down south doesn’t she?

You are not sounding shallow. Half of the roles in glamour industry are given based on looks only. That’s why we have so many average actors ka bhandaar.

yes, they are, but she is quite mediocre even with those, except the looks and she dances well.

i guess audience are getting more demanding

also you are easily replaceable in those roles when the next pretty young thing walks in and also flops are bad news as you are considered unlucky

so lifespan of such actors is limited unless you scale up

Honestly I think even if you have limited acting skills, screen presence matters a lot. You gotta somehow connect with the audience, Pooja can do none of that. I saw her in Radhe Shyam, she looked beautiful but was too bland/dull onscreen. Doesn’t stand out among others.

Disagree with u here… she is presently the top actress in south .. apart from Samantha… you can’t sustain this long if you don’t hv anything in u… she has been so successful in south that apparently Bollywood has finally paid her notice and started giving her roles in Bollywood…as far as RadheyShyam was concerned… she was the only good part of the movie…

She looked gorgeous in Radhe Shyam but I found her strictly mediocre along with Prabhas, moreover their pairing was so odd to me 🤔Anyway I respect your opinion but I never found her anything special.

Chalo atleast she looked gorgeous to you… but here sincerely hoping that she chooses her scripts wisely… try to improve her acting and do substantial roles…I too agree that if she keeps on doing flowerpot roles… soon someone else will replace her…

That sounds like a certain Mrs. Kaif in Bollywood


She managed to sustain with this template for so long


I’m kind of contradicting my original point about why Pooja will continue to get offers, but Katrina has always stood out. She’s always had screen presence and Oomph and has some iconic songs to her credit.

I think her film with Salman will do nothing for her career, I think she should do sth meatier in Telugu first
