AActress Pooja Jhaveri says there wasn't a moment on the sets of filmmaker Prabhu Solomon's next yet-untitled Tamil project when she didn't learn something from her co-star Dhanush.

"With Dhanush as your co-actor, there's something you always learn. Even if you spend a few minutes with him on the sets, you'd have learnt something as simple as his extremely grounded personality or his dedication," Pooja told IANS.

Pooja plays one of the leads in the film, which also features Keerthy Suresh.

Pooja is making her Tamil debut with this project and she considers it an advantage to start her career with Dhanush.

 

"Besides the wide reach that the project promises, the opportunity to work with two highly talented persons - Dhanush and Solomon - is something not everybody gets in their first project. I consider myself extremely lucky," she said.

Talking about working with director Prabhu Solomon, she added: "Working with this team has been amazing. Before each scene, we'd do so many rehearsals that by the time we actually shoot, it would still feel like you're rehearsing. You get so comfortable that the whole process feels natural."

Pooja will next be seen as a village belle in Atharvaa-starrer Tamil film "Rukmani Vandi Varuthu" and also in her Telugu film "Right Right" with Sumanth Ashwin.
