Shot for Monica after a ligament tear: Pooja Hegde
Published: 2025-07-17
Thank you for all the love on Monica, Pooja Hegde wrote, expressing her delight over the fab response for her song in Rajinikanth's Coolie . Released last week, the Anirudh Ravichander composition is a chartbuster. Monica was one of the most physically toughest and demanding songs of my career, Pooja writes, talking about the specific challenges faced. The song was shot under scorching heat, apparently. Trying to combat the extreme heat, sun burn that left tan lines for months to come..., the star heroine says. She was recovering from a ligament tear when the song happened. The Duvvada Jagannadham star rose to the occasion knowing fully well that the choreography involved hectic dance moves. Besides filming for the song in a dusty environ, she found the high-energy dance moves challenging. After all that, still making sure it looks glamorous and effortless was the key. I gave my all to Monica and it's gonna be a blast to watch in the theatres, I promise. Dance away, Pooja writes, giving a special shout-out to the dancers who stood by her in this task and gave her energy throughout. Coolie , starring Rajinikanth as the hero and the Nagarjuna-Upendra duo in crucial roles, will hit the screens on August 14th .
