Anushka Sharma scores a dozen in Hindi Cinema, and her film choices, both as an actor and as a producer, indicate her passion and perseverance as an artist.

December 12, 2008; we saw Aditya Chopra's Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, which starred Shah Rukh Khan and marked the debut of Anushka Sharma, who played his wife Taani. For us, Surinder and Raj (both the roles played by Khan) were one, for Taani, they were too. This was (almost) a film dealing with extra-marital relationship as much as it was about a man's alter and clandestine ego.
Given the narrative of the tale, the film received polarised response with digs at the implausibility of the theme. It was only two years later in Band Baaja Baaraat, when Sharma made her mark in the Hindi film industry. She shone in a spunky, spirited character that establishes charmingly and cleverly why wedding planning is the best and the most lucrative business, especially in a city like Delhi.
