7 years of Sultan: Anushka Sharma was scared before reading the script, wondered what she’ll do in a Salman Khan film

She added that since Aditya Chopra knows her for the longest, she was hopeful. And when Ali narrated the script to her, she was very happy. “Apart from the role, I was really happy with the journey of the film emotionally. After the narration, I spoke deeply about the film with Ali, and its relevance in life. That’s the magic of cinema that we continue to talk about the film.”

Anushka also narrated how people, especially women lauded her part and the stands she takes in life. The actor shared that she was told how a few ‘posh aunties’ started clapping at her dialogues in a multiplex. “So every woman of all age groups and society connected with it,” she added.

The actor also spoke about the chemistry with Salman Khan, which was much loved by the audience. Crediting Ali for creating an amazing relationship between the two on paper, she said, “It is a simple and rooted chemistry. It’s also high on emotions. Even when they are not together, you feel emotional towards their love story. It also got to do with the fact that there’s something charming about Salman on screen. It adds to everything. They both are so different and because of that, the chemistry works.”
