Pooja Hegde's lashes out at hackers for misusing her Instagram account

Actress Pooja Hegde's instagram account was hacked late on Wednesday and the former beauty queen requested her fans not to provide any personal information to anyone. She also lashed out at the hackers, using hashtags like ‘hackers get a life’, while hoping that they had not shared her personal information. Pooja later shared that after a hour of ‘stressing’ over the incident, she finally got her ‘hands back’ on her account. The 29-year-old thanked her team for the ‘instant help’ late in the night. The actor also stated that any message, follow back or post in the last hour will be undone. 

On the work front, Pooja Hegde will be seen sharing the screenspace with Prabhas in their upcoming film, tentatively called Jaan. Meanwhile, Pooja has been spending COVID-19 quarantine by cooking, reading, even cutting her hair, and spending time playing music. The actor has also done her bit for the relief efforts, by supporting the initiative to donate PPE kits to the doctors and healthcare workers.
