Aiyaary for her, reports news agency IANS. Pooja, who earlier featured in Neeraj Pandey's

Aiyaary or my role in it. All I can say is I'm delighted to be working with my all-time favourite director Neeraj Pandey once again and the film boasts of some stellar cast like Naseeruddin Shah, Manoj Bajpayee, Anupam Kher and Sidharth Malhotra. I am ecstatic."
Pooja Chopra, who made her Bollywood debut with Madhur Bhandarkar's
