Pooja, 'Oram Po' & biriyani

Pooja is thrilled at her long-pending 'Oram Po' releasing in theatres this week-end. The young actress, who has managed to make a name for her in Sinhala films too, says:

'��I have played a sweet character in 'Oram Po'. It has come out well. Hopefully audience would love it'��.

The movie, directed by the husband-wife team of Pushkar and Gayathri features Pooja in a deglamourised role. She plays a girl who owns a biriyani shop.

'��I liked the idea. I prepared myself by observing several such women in close quarters to contribute my best on the screen. Apart from my character, I liked the story very much.I agreed to do the role after listening to the one-liner they narrated me. The director couple was fresh, and enthusiastic about their work.'��

Pooja is equally thrilled to act Bala's 'Naan Kadavul'. Without divulging details about her character, Pooja says, '��I am playing the dream role of my life. My character assumes greater significance in the movie. Bala has been extracting the best from me'��.
