Anushka is someone who doesn’t shy away from speaking her mind. The actress remains quite conscious when it comes to choosing scripts and she once turned down Imtiaz Ali’s Tamasha because it didn’t fit her parameters. Yes, you read it right. Surprisingly, Anushka was the first choice of Imtiaz Ali for Tamasha.

Later, the project was bagged by Deepika Padukone. Once Anushka was asked if she had any regrets about not doing the film, the NH10 actor replied, “I have no doubt that if I did the film, I would have been praised. Any actor in an Imtiaz Ali film will always be good for he is a good director and is very good with his actors.” Interestingly, her comments came after the lead actress Deepika Padukone’s performance was showered with praises.
