‘IT’S A HOMECOMING FOR ME’ 

Anusha’s last Marathi outing was Gautam Joglekar’s Jai Jai Maharashtra Majha in 2012.

She is also quick to point out the consistent progression in Marathi cinema. She adds, “It has evolved so much over the years, and I am happy to be back. There are better opportunities today. The audience will hopefully get to see more of me in Marathi movies now.”
