When Anushka Sharma impressed Ali Abbas Zafar

Anushka Sharma Femina shoot

When the first look of Anushka Sharma’s avatar in ‘Sultan’ released, everyone was extremely impressed. However it seems, nobody could be more taken back by the Sharma’s performance more than the film’s director Ali Abbas Zafar.

“As the female wrestler on set, armed with an accurate accent, Anushka bowled me over,”��Times of India reported Zafar expressing. In order to portray her role as a female wrestler perfectly, Sharma had to undergo some very hard core training, where she in fact was supervised by three different people.

Talking about how he felt the actress would do with preparing for the role to this extent, the director explained, “To be honest, I was a little concerned on how much would she be able to manage in just six weeks. But I have faith in Anushka’s complete commitment to her work. She has coped with a tough training schedule without a break with no complaints.”

Set to release on 6th July, ‘Sultan’ also stars Salman Khan and Randeep Hooda.
