My Life, My Terms… Suman Sharma Meets the Gorgeous Anushka Sharma Who’s Fast Graduated Into a Gritty Producer
She may be the most glamorous face around. But her grit and determination is what takes her several notches higher. Anushka Sharma is cut from a very different cloth indeed. At the peak of her career, she talks of stardom and glamour as being transitory phases of life. She has the courage to call a spade, a spade, without using an ounce of flattery. She’s no-nonsense and that’s what makes her an affable star. She’s outspoken about feminism and equality and other righteous ideas because, the one thing that comes to her in abundance and with consummate ease, is honesty. She picks up a cause when she believes in it. She’s a born fighter. A person who doesn’t crave attention, but isn’t dismissive of it either. Ask millions of fans on social media who are going gaga over the viral Phillauri promotions. A glorious woman of complexities, simplicities and everything you’d expect from a special human being. An actor, a producer, a marketing genius, a social media tsarina, Anushka Sharma gets every role of her life, right.
What makes Phillauri a unique film?
It’s different from what I or someone else has attempted before. Creating a character through special effects has probably happened for the first time in Hindi films. And plus there’s a supernatural element to it. Phillauri is the story of a soul. And yes, I’ve experienced the presence of spirits. But I won’t talk about it because people will laugh. All the same, Phillauri is a light and sweet film.
Is the responsibility greater when you’re a producer?
