Looking ahead, Anushka Sharma is set to make a powerful comeback with ‘Chakda 'Xpress,’ a biographical drama on Netflix. The film is based on the life of former Indian fast bowler Jhulan Goswami. This role marks her return to the big screen after a brief hiatus, and fans are eagerly awaiting her portrayal of one of cricket's most celebrated figures.
