There is a popular notion in the film industry, which says that there will be that one career defining film for any actor and actress, which will change their fate and make them superstars. The same happened for Pooja Hegde in the form of Ala Vaikunthapurramulo.

However, it appears that Pooja Hegde does not have much regard for this film in her filmography, and the same is to be understood from her latest statement.

While interacting with a Bollywood media outlet, recently, Pooja Hegde appointed out that Ala Vaikunthapurramulo is a Tamil film and it worked wonderfully well for her career. “Ala Vaikunthapurramulo is a Tamil film and not a pan India film but it worked very well.” She said.

The very fact that Pooja Hegde was so very inconsiderate about the film that changed her career for good and termed it as a Tamil film while knowing full well that it is a Telugu film has become a topic of discussion.

At a time when all of Indian cinema is looking at Telugu cinema and pressing the kind of filmography that is put up here, Pooja Hegde is confusing Telugu Cinema for Tamil cinema. Social media users are frustrated by the fact that she could not even remember the language of the film that gave her carrier and made her what she is today.

At the same time, there is also an argument that Pooja might have gotten the statement wrong due to external thought process as she was at a major event and her mind could have been elsewhere. But that is not stopping social media users from taking a toll on her for the ignore and comment on her career defining Telugu film.

Even at a professional level, better consideration is expected from a senior actress like Pooja Hegde, who made a fortune for herself while working on Telugu films.
