Indian actress Pooja Hegde revealed that she took part in the Koi Mil Gaya premiere as a kid and could not get a picture with Hrithik Roshan. The actress Pooja Hegde was born and brought up in Mumbai. In a recent conversation, Pooja Hegde revealed how everyone has always supposed that she is from South India as she has worked in numerous south Indian films.

In a chat with Mashable India, Pooja Hegde expressed that even Hrithik Roshan thought that she was from south India. Remembering the incident, Pooja stated, “I was born and brought up in Mumbai. I remember I was doing a Mohenjo Daro look test with Hrithik. I told him that I am going to go home now. So, he was like – ‘Oh really? What time is your flight?’ I said, ‘Flight?’ He replied, ‘Are you not going home?’ I told him that I was going to Bandra.” Pooja stated that the information left  Hrithik perplexed.

In the same conversation, Pooja Hegde unveiled how she had a massive crush on Hrithik Roshan as a kid. She remembered the time when she attended the Koi Mil Gaya premiere in the hope to get a picture with Hrithik Roshan. But sadly, things didn’t work out the way she had hoped.

“I went to the premiere of Koi Mil Gaya. I had taken my camera with the reel in it. I wanted to take a picture with Hrithik Roshan. And as all celebs do, he came for 10 minutes, waved at everyone and left. I was heartbroken. I was so sad that Hrithik ke saath mera picture adhura reh gaya. There is a photo of me all sad next to the poster of Koi Mil Gaya,” she said, adding that sometimes she wishes she could go back in time and tell her younger self that, “Wait, your story is not over. One day, you will have a full film with Hrithik Roshan.”

On the professional front, currently, Pooja Hegde will next be seen with Salman Khan-lead Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali. The film is going to be released on Christmas this year.
