She was selected after Mysskin had seen still photographs from her pageant success, and Hegde helped practice Tamil dialogue for the film by writing and memorising words in English, adding that the similarity between Tamil and her native tongue Tulu was also useful. Prior to release, the film garnered high expectations as a result of the novel theme of a superhero in Tamil films and the film took a grand opening at the box office in August 2012. However, the film received mixed to negative reviews from critics, hampering its progress, and the film ended up becoming a surprise commercial failure.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/review/south-review-mugamoodi-fails-to-impress/20120831.htm |title=Review: Mugamoodi fails to impress |access-date=15 April 2021 |work=Rediff |date=31 August 2012}}</ref> Hegde's performance also received mixed reviews with a critic from Sify.com citing that she "disappoints", though a critic from ''[[The Hindu]]'' noted "she doesn't have much scope for talent display."<ref>{{cite news |last1=Rangarajan |first1=Malathi |title=Mugamoodi: Unmasked! |url=http://www.thehindu.com/features/cinema/article3848361.ece |access-date=15 April 2021 |work=The Hindu |date=1 September 2012 |language=en-IN}}</ref> She earned a nomination for the Best Tamil Female Debut Actress at the [[2nd South Indian International Movie Awards]], but lost out to [[Lakshmi Menon (actress)|Lakshmi Menon]].{{Citation needed|date=August 2022}}
