Anushka Sharma's fans were thrilled when she announced that she will be returning to the big screen in January with Chakda Xpress. The actress will play Indian cricketer Jhulan Goswami, as has been revealed via the film's first look.
Despite the fact that the film is yet to go into production, the PK actress has already begun her preparations to look and feel the part. Reportedly, Anushka is currently working on improving her fitness and physique in preparation for her role as a fast bowler on screen.
A report points out how Anushka’s social media shows her constantly putting up content related to working out. The report stated how all this suggests she has started prepping to play Jhulan on screen.
She plays a cricketer in the film and while Anushka has always been one of the fittest actresses in Indian cinema, she will need to tailor-make her workout to achieve the kind of body and fitness level she needs to play Jhulan effectively.
It also mentioned that the Netflix film will be grand on scale. Sharma is also known to transform herself for films and Jhulan is a film that will give us a chance to see a vintage Anushka performance.
The Sui Dhaaga actress doing a film on women’s cricket is exciting from the very onset and the fact that the makers are trying to make it the biggest sports film inspired by a female sporting icon in scale and canvas, makes things all the more exciting.
Chakda Xpress, a much awaited Netflix film, follows Jhulan Goswami, one of the fastest female pacers in international cricket history, as she rose through the ranks against numerous obstacles created by patriarchal politicians to achieve her sole ambition: to play cricket. Clean Slate Filmz is putting together Chakda Xpress.
