Mumbai, Nov 12 (IANS): Bollywood star Varun Dhawan heaped praise on actress Pooja Hegde, who looked stunning in an edgy outfit.

Pooja, who made her Bollywood debut in 2014 with “Mohenjo Daro” starring Hrithik Roshan, took to Instagram, where she shared a string of pictures dressed in wrinkled black cargo pants paired with white ribbed crop top.
