Among other Bollywood performers, Anushka Sharma has carved out a space for herself with movies that are both commercial and rich in content. She is not only a fantastic performer but also a devoted mother to her daughter Vamika. Reflecting back on her motherhood experience, the actress recently said that she has grown more self-assured and secure after becoming a mom.

Anushka responded to Grazia's question on how life has changed since Vamika's birth by saying, “It has internally made me a far more self-assured individual – I feel I’m way more confident as a person. It’s a very real thing, caring for another human – and putting the child first in everything. I want to mention this – that it’s so important to have this connect with your child. I’m so hands on and I do everything for her, and I enjoy doing it, so the bond is very special. I feel that she’s turning into a secure individual, and I’m happy about that.”

Anushka is gearing up for her upcoming Chakda Xpress. She remarked of the comeback project, “The entire last year went into filming Chakda. I’d finish shooting and would have only that much time to spend time with my daughter, feed her dinner, and follow her night-time routine, and go to bed early soon after her." 

According to the actress, she will only work on films that are worthwhile for her time and effort. “I don’t think I found time to do anything else. I’m okay to do more movies but only if it’s worth taking my time out and if it makes sense. I don’t want to do movies just to stay in the game – I’m very clear about that. It would have to be a film like Chakda,” she said.

The life of cricketer Jhulan Goswami is the premise of the biopic Chakda Xpress. She makes her comeback in the movie after being away for nearly 4 years. She last appeared in Zero alongside Katrina Kaif and Shah Rukh Khan. The forthcoming sports drama will soon be released on Netflix.
