Guess This South Actress With Her Mother. Hint: She Also Acted In Bollywood With Salman Khan

May 12 was celebrated as Mother’s Day and as an ode to the special day, many celebrities shared a few never-seen-before clicks on social media to wish their mothers. Recently, a pan-Indian actress dropped a photo of herself with her mother, and her fans cannot stop gushing about her cuteness. Can you identify this actress from her childhood photo?

Before venturing into acting, she was a model and a beauty pageant who marked her debut in 2012 with a Tamil film titled Mugamoodi. The Tulu-speaking actress has worked with a few A-lister actors like Ram Charan, Naga Chaitanya, Hrithik Roshan, Prabhas, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Thalapathy Vijay and even Ranveer Singh. She is Pooja Hegde.

On the occasion of Mother’s Day, she shared this photo on social media and wrote a sweet note for her mother. It read, “Happy Mother’s Day, mom. I will forever be your trusty sidekick/helper.

This photo was taken at the opening puja of her 2nd computer data training centre. I watched in awe as she put on her saree every day, gave us an air kiss to make sure we didn’t mess (up) her lipstick and then set off to conquer the business, educate people and be the best boss to over 50 employees. Our superwoman, like most mothers, juggles work and home chores like a pro. Me? I just wanted to be just like mom.”

The comment section was filled with love for the actress. A comment read, “Aunty still looks the same.” Another commented, “Beautiful girl with beautiful mom.” One opined, “Pooja was cute in her childhood also.” Another wrote, “Pooja is so glorious and pretty in childhood. I like this pic.”

Pooja Hegde was last seen in the Bollywood film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, directed by Farhad Samji. It starred Salman Khan, Bhumika Chawla, Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari and many others. It received mixed reviews from critics and viewers alike. Currently, she is gearing up for yet another Hindi film Deva opposite Shahid Kapoor. It will also star Pavail Gulati and Kubbra Sait. It is touted to hit the silver screens on October 11.
