Actor Anushka Sharma is all set to fill in the shoes of former Indian captain Jhulan Goswami for her upcoming biopic Chakda Xpress. The actor is ensuring to get into the skin of the character. Since Jhulan Goswami was a cricketer, Anushka is also ensuring to even ace on the field of cricket. Having said that, Anushka was seen today at a cricket field, prepping up for her character. We see her stretching and warming up before picking the bat.
A few pictures of the same surfaced online where Anushka is seen wearing an orange jersey top along with black joggers and sports shoes. She even opted for a cap that gives more of a sporty touch. Earlier, after sharing a glimpse of Jhulan Goswami, Anushka mentioned that Chakda Xpress is a special film and wants people to see chronicles of her life journey. She considers that it will be an eye-opener into the world of women’s cricket.
“It is a really special film because it is essentially a story of tremendous sacrifice. 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 wrote on Instagram.
