Waiting in the wings to become the next Deepika Padukone
to take the world of entertainment by storm, aspiring scientist turned mesmeric
model Pooja Bhamrah has transformed into an attractive actress in youth
oriented show ‘Yeh Jawani Ta Ra Ri Ri’. Marking her debut in Channel V’s block
buster show was a strategic move for pretty Pooja, who wanted to get familiar
with the nuances of camera movement.
Punjabi kudi Pooja (and Bollywood loves all Punjabi
kudis) is playing a character – Devika - who is completely opposite of what she
is in real life. Devika in Yeh Jawani is real smooth girl, who is full of
herself. She can be pretty shrewd at times but deep down she is harmless, says
the model who hasn’t formally studied acting but has done a short term theatre
workshop with Neeraj Kabi (of Ship of Thesus fame). .
The Mumbai-bred girl has done her B-Tech in biotechnology
and aspired to get into research but destiny had its own plans. She started
modelling 2 years ago and ever since then there has been no looking back.
“Acting isn’t really as easy as it seems. However, life has just changed for
the better. I’m much busier now juggling between ramp and acting. I was a little
apprehensive and had my own inhibitions but the entire team supported me
supremely and helped me give my best,” says the savvy diva who aspires to play
a strong feminist character someday - more like on lines of Gulabi Gang. Well,
Pooja is right on the dot in aspiring to be like ‘Dhak Dhak’ girl Madhuri Dixit
and former beauty queen turned superstar Juhi Chawla.
Pooja is good at multi tasking as she juggles between
modeling for a Kolkata based designer at Fiat’s launch event and the Lemark
show. A graduate in Biotechnology, Pooja could have well chosen a cushy 9 to 5
high paying job but then this cerebral Punjabi beauty was destined to rule the
ramp. While she was preparing for her MBA entrance exams, Pooja got a lucky
break in modeling and stormed into the Indian fashion scene with Punjab
international fashion week by Storm fashion company where she walked the ramp
for the first. Since then there has been no looking back. Very soon, she was up
there winning multiple beauty pageant crowns and other accolades. Miss Queen of
India 2011, Miss Oriental Tourism India 2012, Max fashion Icon 1st runner's up
all of them followed in quick succession brining Pooja into the limelight.
Some of the prominent designers that Pooja has walked for
include Manish Malhotra, Shyamal and Bhumika, Shantanu Nikhil, Shivan and
Naresh-, Shane and falguni peacock,
Sabhyashachi, Vikram Phadnis, Rocky S, Narendra Kumar, Archana Kocchar,
Priya Kataria Puri, Neeta Lulla, Satya Paul and many others.
This leggy lass has also adorned the print version of
many ad campaigns and magazine shoots namely Jashn, Mandate Magazine, Killer
jeans, 99lables.com, Franklin Templeton investments, Riot catalogue, Remanika,
Global Desi and the prestigious
editorial for Femina Pune and Femina mumbai.
As of now, Pooja has set her sights on the film world. To
eyes like the sunflowers canoodling on a breezy summer morning, like the blue
ocean spreading across the expanse, like the sight of a dew drop safely nestled
in the heart of a lotus, like a serene sight of the calm rivulet making its way
through the stones with an endearingly delicious resonance, Pooja Bhamrah
brings out the best of poetry in the hearts of many a man. And then she starts
talking and the poetry lithely is transformed into a melodious symphony in
motion. Every word uttered feels like pearls dropping on the floor so precious,
they leave a lasting impression. You are bamboozled by this amazing combination
of beauty with brains – a rarity in our modeling industry and yes the film
industry too.
