Actress Pooja Hegde has professed her love for Kanjivaram sarees and said that she is always a “Kanjivaram girl.”
Pooja took to Instagram, where she shared a string of images and clips from a recent photoshoot, where she wore an exquisite aubergine and gold hued saree. She completed her look with drop earrings, a choker and bangles. For the make-up, she went subtle with nude lips and left her long straight black hair open.
