Pooja Hegde, one of the most sought-after actresses in the Telugu film industry, is rumored to be in talks for a prominent role in an upcoming project. According to the sources, Pooja is currently in discussions to play the female lead in an exciting collaboration between Sai Dharam Tej and director Sampath Nandi. What makes this project even more noteworthy is that it will be produced by none other than acclaimed filmmaker Trivikram Srinivas.

Sources close to the development have revealed that Trivikram Srinivas approached Pooja Hegde for the lead role in this highly anticipated film, which is expected to be a mass entertainer. With the shooting of the project set to commence later this year, fans are eagerly awaiting an official announcement that will confirm Hegde's involvement.

This upcoming film will mark the first collaboration between Sai Dharam Tej and Sampath Nandi. Nandi, known for his previous commercial potboiler 'Seetimaarr' featuring Gopichand and Tamannaah Bhatia, is expected to bring his trademark style and entertainment quotient to this new venture.

It's worth noting that Pooja Hegde recently opted out of Mahesh Babu and Trivikram's 'Guntur Kaaram' due to delays and reshoots. The film reportedly underwent changes in its script and shooting schedules, leading to Hegde's decision to withdraw from the project. However, this new opportunity with Sai Dharam Tej and Sampath Nandi seems to have piqued the actress's interest, and she is now eager to embark on this fresh cinematic journey.

As for 'Guntur Kaaram,' the role initially meant for Pooja Hegde will now be portrayed by Sreeleela, while Meenakshii Chaudhary has joined the cast as the second female lead. Directed and written by Trivikram Srinivas, this film, previously known as 'SSMB28,' will be Mahesh Babu's 28th film and is scheduled for release in January 2024.
