“I want to inspire the other generation for doing more female-centric action films,” says Radhe Shyam star Pooja Hegde : Bollywood News

Actress Pooja Hegde is all set to romance on-screen with PAN India star Prabhas in the love saga Radhe Shyam. The promotions of the film are going on in full swing and recently during one of the promotional events, the actress applauded South cinema for bringing strong female protagonists.

“I want to inspire the other generation for doing more female-centric action films,” says Radhe Shyam star Pooja Hegde

Pooja expressed the need for strong female characters in films and said, "It should happen because, as a girl when I see Hema Malini beating goons in Seeta Aur Geeta, or when Gal Gadot plays Wonder Woman, or when Angelina Jolie does hardcore action in Mr and Mrs Smith, it empowers, excites, and encourages me to do something big.

Pooja further said that she relates to such characters and look upon them, "I want to do an action film, and inspire the other generation. I hope more films should come up where girls are stronger and more resilient. I think that is not happening, but having said that, I'm glad that we are slowing moving towards the change."
