On the work front, it will be Anushka who will be next seen as a cricketer in her upcoming Chakda Xpress, a film inspired by the life and times of former Indian cricket captain Jhulan Goswami. According to the official synopsis, the movie traces the glorious journey of one of the fastest female pacers in the history of world cricket as she moves up the ladder despite the countless hindrances posed by misogynistic politics to fulfil her only dream: to play cricket.

Chakda Xpress is produced by Anushka Sharma and her brother Karnesh Sharma’s Clean Slate Filmz and directed by Prosit Roy of Paatal Lok fame.
