Hegde added that there might be no truth to the rumours but people like to talk about them. The best way, the Housefull 4 actor shared that she does to refrain from such negativity, was to flood herself with positivity which is why her social media will always be about the good times in her life.

Prabhas and Pooja Hedge have great respect and admiration for each other. In fact, they share a great camaraderie off-screen and that has translated into some magical onscreen chemistry. Pooja has always been very punctual for her shoots. She is very easy to work with. These rumours are merely a figment of someone’s imagination. All is well between the leading pair and the entire team is very excited to bring audiences a theatrical experience they won’t forget,” the statement read.
