Pooja Hegde has officially joined the cast of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, and the film is being seen as a crucial turning point in her Bollywood journey.
While the actress continues to enjoy massive popularity and success in South Indian cinema, her recent Hindi releases like Deva and Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan have struggled at the box office, putting pressure on her position in Bollywood.
Industry insiders believe this David Dhawan directorial could be her biggest opportunity to reconnect with the Hindi audience. Starring alongside Varun Dhawan, Pooja is reportedly pinning high hopes on the entertainer to revive her Bollywood prospects.
Known for his successful commercial entertainers, David Dhawan could provide the perfect platform for Pooja to finally establish herself strongly in mainstream Hindi cinema and deliver a much-needed blockbuster hit.
