It may well be a coincidence of sorts but 2013 is all set to be a year when Anushka Sharma would be ruling from beginning till the end of year. Reason being that she would be the leading lady of first and the last major release of the year.

"2013 begins with Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola which arrives in the second week of January. Then last release of the year is P.K. which releases on Christmas. She is the lead in both films which means she would stay on in audience memory right through the year", confirms an insider.

Another coincidence lies in the fact that she would be paired opposite 'mama' as well as 'bhaanja' in the respective films.

"Aamir is her co-star in P.K. while Imran is her Matru… The only other actress to enjoy this unique feat is Kareena Kapoor who has been paired opposite Aamir (3 Idiots) as well as Imran (Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu)", adds an observer.

With Yash Chopra's Jab Tak Hai Jaan with Shah Rukh Khan this year and a film each with Rajkumar Hirani and Vishal Bhardwaj next year, guess next 14 months would indeed be the most crucial of Anushka's career.
