According to Sources, in a period of 45 days she has refused 31 movie offers, as the projects had the likes of Rahul Mahajan and Ashmit Patel as her co-stars and no big guns from the industry.
"I turned down 31 offers in the last 45 days. It was not about the role, but the names involved. I want to act withthe big guns of the Bollywood industry, " boasted Poonam.
"Why should I work with a small production house, when I'm getting offers from big banners?" she added.
Though Poonam is getting several offers for item numbers, she doesn't wish to begin her career as an item girl.
The bombshell, who is now looking forward to doing movies under big banners, said, "I get calls practically every day with offers of item numbers. There was a call from a Telugu director for a song, but I turned it down as I don't want to begin my career with an item number."
