Anushka Sharma and Jhulan Goswami
Anushka Sharma is all set to portray the legendary Jhulan Goswami in her forthcoming movie Chakda Xpress. She will now sharpen her skills by travelling to Leeds because the shooting will start by the end of August.
She has already completed the first schedule of the film according to several reports. The cricketing part of the shoot will be completed by early September.
“Anushka is leaving no stone unturned to become Jhulan on screen. She will perfect her cricket skills extensively in Leeds from mid-August before she starts shooting the cricket portions of the film,” said a source close to the production to the Indian Express.
“She has always been a deeply committed artiste and she wants to do justice to the role at hand. She will prep thoroughly and put herself through rigorous training exercised before she shoots the key scenes right from the end of August through September,” the source added.
The film is set to release in the month of January but the producers can change their plans too. Netflix is the distributer of the film, if the reports are to be believed.
Jhulan Goswami’s international career
The legendary Jhulan Goswami was born in a rural area in West Bengal. She has represented the nation in 281 international matches and picked up 352 wickets.
In 2007, ICC honored her with ICC Women’s Cricketer of the Year. In 2008, she was made the captain of the Women’s team and guided India in ODIs. The 39-year-old has taken part in five World Cups since her debut in 2005.
