In fact, I asked him where he found those actors, and he shared that they are all his friends. “I think Nelson sir casts people who are interesting. To be successful in this genre, it is important that the writing and casting be on point,” says Pooja, who adds that the casting of Beast fascinated her. While Housefull had more slapstick humour, in Beast, it is the situations that create humour, because the actors are usually saying their dialogues with a straight face. Beast is from director Nelson, who has already proved his credentials in this genre. Pooja is no stranger to the comedy genre having been part of the Housefull series, one of Indian cinema’s most successful comic franchises. This relatability usually grows multifold when an actor does comedy. “When you speak someone’s language, you can connect with people it makes them feel like you are their own.” “It is a gift to be accepted by audiences across languages,” says a grateful Pooja. The heroine is also gearing up for films with Chiranjeevi and Ranveer Singh, and that makes her one of the busiest pan-Indian actors right now. She has starred in films opposite the likes of Allu Arjun, Akshay Kumar, Jr NTR, Mahesh Babu, and Prabhas. While Beast might be her first Tamil film in a decade, Pooja has already made her mark in Telugu and Hindi cinema. With Beast, I hope boxes get ticked,” says Pooja. My biggest goal has always been to entertain people and I have a strong desire to gain the love of the audience. “I owe a lot to this film industry that turned me into an actor. And yet, she remembers feeling nervous about her return to the industry where it all began for her. Unlike her first brush in Tamil cinema, this time around, Pooja is not a newbie… She is already a star.
