Anushka Sharma is shooting for her next film, 'Chakda Xpress', a Netflix-exclusive project. The Bollywood actor recently arrived in the UK for the shooting, and shared a few pictures on Instagram. The actor could be seen enjoying the greenery in the park. In the three pictures, she is lying down in two, while the third one has her with her world-brightening smile. However, she wrote in the caption, “Don’t be fooled by that smile.”
Actor Arjun Kapoor, a close friend of Anushka, commented on the picture that he was right on her birthday. Arjun was referring to an Instagram post he made on Anushka’s birthday. The Ishaqzaade actor shared a collage of him and Anushka’s photos, both clicked while lying on the grass. He had said in the caption that Anushka was the nature girl of India and added that there was no one like her.
Arjun’s comment got more than 1,900 likes and 70+ comments. A week ago, Anushka had posted a picture of sitting on the bench and inferred that it was the only thing better than walking in the park. Anushka’s upcoming movie is being directed by Prosit Roy, while Abhishek Banerjee is writing the screenplay. 'Chakda Express' is based on the life of Jhulan Goswami, the former captain of the Indian national women’s cricket team. To achieve Jhulan’s fitness levels, Anushka has been working hard and shared intense training videos on her social media.
