He also spoke about the viral song Kanimaa and how Pooja’s natural energy has helped it trend across social media.
During the event, Suriya said, “Pooja Hegde has made the song viral, a lot of sincere effort from her. I think she has promoted the film a little more than me. She is not here today because she has gone for another work.”
For the unversed, Pooja Hegde could not attend the film promotions as she is currently shooting for her next Bollywood film, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, in the United Kingdom. The actress will be seen sharing screen space with Varun Dhawan in the light-hearted rom-com, directed by David Dhawan.

Directed by Karthik Subbaraj, Retro is touted to be a gangster drama, featuring high-energy action sequences blended with a touch of romance. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see Pooja’s chemistry with Suriya unfold on the big screen. The film is slated to release on May 1.
