In a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Anushka spoke about why she decided to step down from her role at the production house. "My industry is all about, 'run, run, run-it's a rat race, and you simply have to be part of it. But I'm more than a rat in a rat race. I want to enjoy my life. I enjoy acting in films, I enjoy being in a room full of creative people, discussing ideas, coming up with ways of doing a scene, and thinking about how the audience will react to it. It's all so pleasurable; I never want to give it up. That is why I had to make a sacrifice," she said.

"Production is a 24/7 job, which, of course, I enjoyed thoroughly. I know the vision I have for the company is the same as my brother's, and I know that vision will be upheld. What we wanted to do create clutter-breaking, content-forward shows and movies, and promoting new talents-we will continue to do," she added.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Anushka Sharma was last seen on the big screen in the film Zero (2018) alongside Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. Earlier, this year, she finally announced her upcoming acting project Chakda Xpress. It is a biographical film based on the life of Indian cricketer Jhulan Goswami. The film will be released on Netflix.
