The energy on set was contagious, and my character is carefully crafted. I'm sharing this even though I haven't seen the complete movie yet, as it is now in the editing phase," she stated. Pooja mentioned that her role in *Retro* came about after director Karthik Subbaraj was impressed with her moving performance in Prabhas' *Radhe Shyam*. In a recent interview, Hegde expressed her pride in the upcoming film *Retro*, Tollywood Box Office Collection starring Suriya. With its release set for May 1, expectations are high for *Retro* to deliver success for both Suriya and Hegde. The romantic drama, blended with action elements, will also feature Shriya Saran in a guest dance number. The film is produced by Jyotika and Suriya under the banner of 2D Entertainment.
