How working in South Indian films helped Pooja Hegde
The stints, the actress said, helped her improvise lines in ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ka Jaan’
Actress Pooja Hegde plays a Telugu-speaking girl in the upcoming Bollywood film ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’. The actress said having worked in South Indian films for over a decade helped her to make improvisations in her dialogues while filming the Salman Khan-starrer.
“Years of working in the South Indian film industries have made me proficient with regard to improvising the lines of my character instantaneously on sets if the character speaks any of the south Indian languages like for this part in ‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’,” she said.
Having proficiency across languages hugely helps an actor to get the essence of a character coming from a particular background, she said.
“I could easily mouth the dialogues in Telugu or improvise my lines because I have been working in that medium for quite some time now and have a decent understanding of that world and the culture,” the actress concluded.
‘Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan’ is set to arrive in cinemas on April 21.
