Every year we witness biopics on several big personalities. This year too we have biopics lined up for release. Well, Anushka Sharma, who was last seen in ‘Zero’ might star in the biopic of Jhulan Goswami, the former Indian captain of women’s cricket team.
As per reports, the biopic is in the works and Anushka will step into the shoes of Jhulan. There is no confirmation from the actress or her team but the pictures that are doing the rounds have suggested that Anushka has started prepping for her role.
As per a report in Hindustan Times, “The production team couldn’t get anyone who would match Jhulan’s physical characteristics, but they were thrilled when they finally found Anushka to be a perfect fit for the part.” The source also said that Anushka is currently being trained by Indian cricketer Jemimah Rodrigues’ father, Ivan Rodrigues, and Indian cricket coach Prashant Shetty.

If Anushka is really going to play the cricketer in the biopic, then her hubby Virat Kohli can also help her out in preparing for the role, isn’t it?
For the unversed, Jhulan is from Chakdaha, West Bengal. She bagged the ICC Women’s Cricketer of the Year award in 2007. She was also awarded the Arjuna Award in 2010 and the Padma Shri.
