Anushka - "I don't have a Godfather"

Three out of four of her releases so far may have been with the Chopras while she is also currently shooting yet another film with her mentors. However that doesn't mean that post 'Patiala House', Anushka Sharma has stopped looking at options outside Yash Raj Films.



Says a friend of Anushka, "It may seem like she is going slow but that is not really the case. In fact if 'Patiala House' would have released in 2010 itself (as per the original plans), it would have made it three in a row for Anushka last year with 'Badmaash Company', 'Patiala House' and 'Band Baaja Baaraat'."

However now that 'Ladies v/s Ricky Behl' seems quite far away with no other newer release in between and there hasn't been any new announcement on her behalf, one wonders if Anushka is missing out on cashing the success of 'Band Baaja Baaraat'.

"You are not expecting me to start working on 20 films in one go, are you," smiles Anushka, "I have to be careful in what I do; after all I don't have a Godfather or a famous father to hold my hand. I am accountable for all my decisions because eventually if things go wrong, I would have to take all the flak."

As for her future plans, Anushka says, "Do I want to pick up any more load? Well not really because if these select few films do well, they would work wonders for assignments that I would get in future as well. It may sound cliched but really, it is quality that matters for me, not quantity."

anushka has the biggest godfather in the industry YRF!!! they only had a 3-film deal with her but since other producers dont look keen in casting her YRF is making more movies with her!

anuskha had no godfather to come into the industry but YRF is now her godfather which is keeping her here!

She sounds so frank in her interviews...I love reading them😛

But YRF really is her godfather as of right now so she shouldn't be talking about how she's this lonely girl on her own...For example, both she and Deepika have no godfathers in this industry but Anushka's in the better boat since she has a whole production company rooting for her, while Deeps has to rely more on PR...so Anushka's not that bad off as she's trying to portray these days...but I do love reading how she's an independent woman whose choices do result in consequences👍🏼

she doesn't need a godfather first she got a debut with srk whch made her famous n second yrf got her back all the time no matter howmany flops she gives hopefully she doesn't end up like rani since she was committed to yrf and barely did movies outside yrf banner. rani is a gud actress but staying with yrf made her career go down.

She has a point and her fears are valid. Being under the YRF banner doesn't mean instant success. The people in that studio may keep giving her their films, but their films arn't always gauranteed success's. In the end of the day its only she who can pull her own weight and show everyone if she can stay or not.

No matter what theres a difference between someone in a company backing you up versus someone in your family backing you up. If she starts giving flop after flop YRF will ditch her, but if she had a father/uncle/anyone related to her in the industry they'll keep pushing her through.
In my opinion she's got a tough job ahead of her, she has to keep up with the other newbies but also not do some bakwas film. Good Luck Anushka.

^^Right on point. Exactly! I totally agree. There's a difference between YRF and having a family member.

Good luck to Anuskha. I love her interviews...honest and to the point. She doesn't come off as fake to me.

Anushka reminds me of Preity Zinta. Preity used to take similar digs at Kareena.
Nepotism is rampant in all fields. But ultimately, it's the audience that accepts or rejects you. Many outsiders have survived in the industry and same goes for nepots. One has to strike a chord with the audience.
