Pooja Batra Trains In Mixed Martial Arts, Keen On Action Films

Darpan News Desk IANS, 24 Jun, 2016 01:32 PM
  • Pooja Batra Trains In Mixed Martial Arts, Keen On Action Films
Actress Pooja Batra says that she is training for mixed martial arts and is eager to do action films.
 
"I'd love to do action now because I am training in mixed martial arts, so I am basically looking towards action-oriented films," Pooja said at the screening of the film "7 Hours To Go" here.
 
Best remembered for acting in films such as "Virasat" and "Haseena Maan Jaayegi", Pooja went away from the spotlight in the mid-2000s.
 
Asked about her absence from the industry, she said: "I'm in Hollywood right now. I'm in a Hollywood film titled 'One Under The Sun' which had premiered at Cannes. Maybe that's why you see less of me. But I had done 'ABCD 2' last year and this year I have done a Punjabi film, 'Killer Punjabi'."
 
Asked when she will be returning to Bollywood in a full-fledged role, she said: "I don't know. When I'll get a good role, then I will definitely return. "
 
Pooja's last full-fledged role in a Hindi film was in "Taj Mahal: An Eternal Love Story" which released in 2006.
