Pooja Bedi plays Egyptian princess in Telugu film

MUMBAI: Nearly two decades after she starred in a Telugu film Chittemma Mogudu with Mohan Babu, Pooja Bedi will now be seen as an Egyptian princess in Junior NTR-starrer Shakti.

Being made with a budget of Rs.450 million, the film is being touted as the costliest Telugu movie ever made.

The film, that has Ileana D‘Cruz in the lead and also features Jackie Shroff, Sonu Sood and Manjari Phadnis, is set to be high on sci-fi and special effects.

Best remembered for her Marilyn Monroe skirt act in Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander, Bedi has been missing from the big screen for a long time.
