Anushka Sharma's biopic on Jhulan Goswami shelved? Actress is no longer..

Anushka Sharma has been away from Bollywood for the last few years. Zero with Shah Rukh Khan was her last theatrical release. After her marriage with Virat Kohli and delivering her first baby Vamika, she tried to make a comeback with a biopic on Jhulan Goswami titled Chakda ‘Xpress. The biopic is produced by Clean Slate Filmz- a production unit that is currently owned by Karnesh Sharma, the brother of Anushka.

The actress was also a part of this production company at the start but owing to some disputes with her brother she stepped back.

Anushka Sharma’s Chakda ‘Xpress fails to get a release date 

In one of the recent interviews, a creative member of Chakda ‘Xpress shared details about the movie and said that the film was completed long ago but he has no idea why it has not been released on Netflix until now as was planned earlier.

He said, “Maine pichle saal Prosit ki ek film ki thi. Muzhe bhi nahi pata. Bahut acchi film bani hai. Bahut hi behtarin film bani hai. Anushka Sharma ’s one of the best performances to date hai. Lekin muzhe samaz mein nahi aa raha ki yeh film kab release hogi. Umeed pe raha sakte hai aap.”

Chakda Express shoot and production is completed since last year, but apparently not getting a release.

No one knows why the movie is not getting released. Whether there is any issue from Netflix or censorship and since it was not supposed to be released in theaters there cannot be an issue of not getting enough screens.

Has Anushka Sharma lost her stardom?

Many believe that the dispute between Anushka and Karnesh Sharma is the main reason why the movie is not being released. However, there are a few Bollywood fans who believe that Anushka Sharma is no longer the A-listed Bollywood superstar that she was a few years ago. Currently, her only claim to fame is because she is the wife of Virat Kohli.

Buzz was always strong that earlier Triptti Dimri was finalised for the role of Jhulan Goswami but after the Animal actress and Karnesh Sharma broke up, the latter requested his sister to take up the role. But eventually, even Anushka Sharma and Karnesh could not get along and now the movie has been kept on backburner.

Undeniably, the story of Jhulan Goswami must be told because she gave the Indian Women’s cricket team credibility. But it is also a fact that Anushka Sharma is no longer the star for whom fans would waste 2 hours either on big or small screens.
