Pooja Hegde Turns Muse For ELLE’s Latest Cover- See Pics!

Pooja Hegde is no stranger to stealing the spotlight—but her new ELLE digital cover? It’s a total scene-stealer. Ditching filters and embracing raw energy, Pooja poses in a chic cream bralette, bouquet in hand, exuding a quiet power that can’t be missed.

From a metallic black-and-silver co-ord to a sheer black skirt paired with a sultry bralette, every look screams bold, boss, and beyond basic. A sleek watch on her wrist completes the vibe—elegant, edgy, and effortlessly cool.

This isn’t just fashion—it’s a fearless flex. The cover doesn’t whisper pretty; it commands attention. It’s Pooja at her most authentic: striking poses while staying grounded.

And beyond the glitz? Grit. Pooja opens up about her upcoming Tamil film 'Retro' with Suriya, calling it a career-changer. Shot on the rugged Viper Island, the experience was as real as it gets—snakes, sweat, and soul. She nailed a one-take, 15-minute sequence blending action, dance, and raw emotion. “That moment brought back my belief in the magic of cinema,” she says.

Over a decade in, Pooja’s finally playing by her own rules. She’s not chasing screens—she’s chasing stories. “It’s not about just doing a film—it’s about doing something that resonates,” she states.

'Retro' is all set to hit the screens on May 1, but the buzz has already begun. With this version of Pooja—unfiltered, unshaken, unstoppable—we're ready for what’s next.
