Pooja is making a comeback to showbiz with upcoming American sitcom Outsourced and also plans to help Indian actors find a foothold there with her casting company.
Pooja, 36, who married orthopaedic surgeon Sonu Ahluwalia in 2003, is currently settled in Los Angeles and has been running her own casting agency - Glow Bell Inc. Pooja has acted in over 21 Bollywood movies like Virasat, Haseena Maan Jaayegi and Nayak - The Real Hero.
"I am pursuing acting in America. I have booked a show there and I am hoping my character develops. It is called Outsourced. It is for NBC (channel); so I am keeping my fingers crossed," Pooja, who was last seen in 2005 in the historical epic Taj Mahal - An Eternal Love Story.
Set in a Mumbai call centre, Outsourced is an adaptation of a Josh Hamilton-Ayesha Dharker-starrer by the same name. The show has been picked up by NBC for its fall schedule.
Directed by Ken Kwapis, it stars Ben Rappaport in the lead alongside others like Rizwan Manji, Sacha Dhawan, Rebecca Hazlewood, Parvesh Cheena, Anisha Nagarajan, Pippa Black and Diebdrich Bader.
