(UTV | INDIA) – The actress, who has been away from the silver screen for a long time, now, will be making her onscreen comeback with ”Chakda ‘Xpress”.
Anushka was last seen in the 2018 Aanand L Rai film ”Zero”, co-starring Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. Recently, she jetted off to England for the shooting for ”Chakda ‘Xpress” and now, she has resumed training for the OTT release.
”Chakda ‘Xpress” marks her first film after the birth of her daughter Vamika whom she and husband Virat Kohli welcomed into their lives in 2021.
Back in January when the movie was announced and shared the teaser, Anushka wrote: “Chakda Xpress is inspired by the life and times of former Indian captain Jhulan Goswami and it will be an eye-opener into the world of women’s cricket.”
”At a time when Jhulan decided to become a cricketer and make her country proud on the global stage, it was very tough for women to even think of playing the sport. This film is a dramatic retelling of several instances that shaped her life and also women’s cricket.”
Anushka will be essaying the role of the Indian cricketer Jhulan Goswami in the film, which is set to release on Netflix. It is directed by Prosit Roy and backed by Karnesh Ssharma’s Clean Slate Filmz.
