Open Chest Interview with Pooja Kumar

Jul 29, 2013

A twist of fate and destiny changes…

Actress Pooja Kumar, while studying for a degree in politics, decided to audition for a dance number at a local beauty pageant but was convinced to compete instead.

Upon doing so, she was amazed at being crowned Miss India USA in 1995. This spontaneous win further ignited her passion to perform, so armed with the crown and a strong foundation as a classically trained dancer, Pooja applied for an acting tutelage with the Amitabh Bachchan Corporation amongst 60,000 hopefuls. Making the cut, she began an experience that she says was so gruelling, it set her up with a strong sense of discipline, a focused mindset and oodles of confidence to take on the world of entertainment.

Since then, she has acted in over ten feature films, numerous television shows and several major ad campaigns including Pearl Vision, Dodge, Verizon and Pepsi.

To date, she has been recognized by the Screen Actors Guild with the Emerging Actor Award for her starring role in Flavours, played an assistant district attorney opposite Kal Penn in Law and Order, and just recently starred opposite Chris Kattan, Keanu Reeves and Neha Dhupia in the hit mini TV series, Bollywood Hero.
