Has Anushka Sharma given a positive nod to play cricketer Jhulan Goswami in her biopic titled 'Chakdah Express'?

Anushka Sharma is unarguably one of the best actresses in Bollywood today. Be it romantic or thriller, horror or comedy, she has aced it all with finesse. While Anushka has been making headlines on the personal front but is missing from the silver screen for a year. The 31-year-old actress who was last seen in Zero, hasn't yet made an official announcement about her acting next. However, the buzz has it that she will be seen in Farah Khan's remake of Satte Pe Satta. Now, as we are awaiting confirmation on the same, reports suggest that Anushka will be frontlining all-round cricketer and former captain of India national women's cricket team Jhulan Goswami's biopic, tentatively titled Chakdah Express

The reports inform that Anushka, on Saturday, jetted off to Kolkata and will be at the Eden Gardens stadium to begin the shoot. As per the speculation, Jhulan will be with Anushka to train her. The shooting for the biopic is said to take place in the dressing room too and the actress will likely return with Jhulan to Mumbai on Sunday to catch up with the further shoot schedules in the city.

Jhulan, back in 2018, had announced her biopic. Hailing from Chakdah in West Bengal, Jhulan made her debut for Team India in 2002. Soon she emerged as one of the best bowlers. She played for the country in 10 Tests, 182 ODIs and 68 T20Is and managed to take 321 international wickets. The 37-year-old cricketer announced her retirement from the team in 2018 and has been appointed as a bowling consultant for India women's national cricket team.

Anushka, who is married to Indian cricketer Virat Kohli, has been spending time with him and focusing on her production house. She was last seen with Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif in Zero which released in December 2018 and proved to be a box-office failure.
