Taali
When the Supreme Court delivered a landmark judgment in 2014, recognising the transgender community as a third gender, the story of transgender activist Gauri Sawant who had been at the forefront of this struggle for equality and dignity, came into the spotlight.

Sen was so deeply immersed in the script which is written by Kshitji Patwardhan. that she studied the script for over six months and also worked on getting her Marathi accent and body language just right. Helmed by the National Award-winning filmmaker Ravi Jadhav, ‘Taali’ by will soon release on an OTT platform.
After displaying her sensational action chops in 2015’s ‘NH-10‘, Anushka Sharma will showcase her athleticism in another home production ‘Chakda Xpress.’ This is her first film after 2018’s ‘Zero’ and her second with director Prosit Roy after their collaboration, ‘Pari.’ It’s a biopic about a woman cricketer named Jhulan Goswami.

She is today considered as one of the greatest bowlers to ever play the sport and it remains to be seen how Anushka will do justice to her brilliance.
