When the media asked her about how she transformed herself for the OTT medium, she said, "The major chunk of the audience has shifted from the movie theatre to the mobile screen, and for me, the audience is like everything for me. I have to keep in touch with them while using the OTT medium.
During the award ceremony, Poonam Jhawer attracted the media's attention with her stunning outfit. Poonam's sense of dressing always makes headlines in the media and this time she has not disappointed with her glamorous look during the Dadasaheb Phalke Excellence Awards 2022.
When the media asked about Poonam Jhawer's upcoming project, she said she is in an advanced stage for a couple of OTT-based shows and she is reading some scripts.

Poonam Jhawer is one of the most followed Bollywood actresses on social media, known for her fitness enthusiast and Bollywood diva persona.

Her later work includes the 2003 movie "Aanch", which was directed by Rajesh Kumar Singh. The movie starred Nana Patekar, Paresh Rawal, and Ayesha Jhulka. She made my debut as a producer with this movie, which has achieved great critical acclaim and did good business at the box office, being more well-liked in the northern part of India. Her role as Lata Thakur in the movie was one of the best parts. Well, not only "Aanch", but she has also produced a Marathi movie titled "Sansarchi Maya", which was released in October 2011.
