Buzz in the
industry suggests that
pooja hegde is gearing up for her next exciting venture opposite Dulquer Salmaan, and what’s caught everyone’s attention is her commitment to learning martial arts for the role. Though primarily touted as a
romantic comedy, the film is said to feature some stylized action sequences that require
pooja to showcase physical agility and combat skills. Sources close to the production reveal that the actress has already begun intensive training, focusing on techniques that combine grace with strength — a move that
adds a new layer to her on-screen persona.

The project, to be produced under the prestigious SLV Cinemas banner, marks a significant shift in tone for
pooja, who has largely been seen in glamorous or emotionally-driven roles. Set to be shot entirely in the United States, the film is expected to blend breezy romance with high-energy action, making it a truly
international production. Training in martial arts not only highlights Pooja’s dedication to her craft but also reflects the evolving nature of female roles in
indian cinema — where
heroines are no longer limited to ornamental parts but are taking center stage in physically demanding scenes.
Fans are already buzzing with anticipation, especially given the fresh pairing of
pooja and Dulquer, who is known for his effortless charm and screen presence. With
pooja pushing her boundaries and embracing a physically intensive role, this film is shaping up to be a unique offering in both stars’ filmographies. If her martial arts skills translate well on screen, it could open up an entirely new action-oriented chapter in her career — one that
adds both credibility and dynamism to her growing repertoire.
