Pooja Hegde criticizes negative PR tactics in Bollywood

Pooja Hegde has discussed the harsh realities of Bollywood, focusing on negative public relations and online trolling. In a recent interview, she shared her personal experiences of being targeted, which also impacted her family. The actress highlighted how some people in the industry are willing to spend large amounts of money to undermine others. Pooja expressed shock at being a victim of this negative PR. She has often faced trolling on social media, particularly from meme pages, and found it to be a coordinated effort. Despite the negativity, Pooja has tried to see the situation positively. She explained that when others spend money to bring her down, it could mean she is doing well in her career. The toll of the trolling affected both her and her family, as she reassured them about the situation. Pooja revealed that when she looked into the source of the trolling, she discovered it was often paid for. She asked her team to contact the meme pages, only to find out that they were being compensated to spread negativity. This realization was surprising for her. She also mentioned that many people who troll her do not understand the context. Often, their accounts appear fake, showing no real profiles or content. Despite facing these challenges, Pooja continues to focus on her work, recently appearing in the film Deva alongside Shahid Kapoor.
