The actress also spoke about her fond Diwali memories. “Every Diwali, I make the rangoli at home. My mum cooks traditional Mangalorean dishes, and we perform a small puja on Lakshmi Puja day. These small moments bring back the fragrance and warmth of my childhood,” she said.

Talking about work, Pooja shared that she sees working on Diwali as a blessing. “If Goddess Lakshmi blesses you with work on Diwali, that’s the best gift,” she smiled.
