5 roles of Anushka Sharma that prove her versatility as an actress

When Anushka Sharma kick-started her career with Aditya Chopra’s Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, we knew that she is here to stay. The actress in her 10 years of career has done a variety of films, but earlier in her career was just stereotyped with characters of bubbly-girl. However, she changed that soon and today, as Anushka celebrates her 31st birthday, let’s look at five roles of her that prove that she is one of the most versatile actresses we have.

Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi


The first one in the list has to be Rab Ne Banadi Jodi. She performed the role of Taani wonderfully and even impressed us with her amazing dance moves. Though there was Shah Rukh Khan in the film, Anushka stood out and proved to be the perfect YRF heroine.

NH10

Anushka Sharma surprised everyone with her role in NH10. It was something that we didn’t expect from the actress, but she nailed it as Meera in the film giving us goosebumps in every scene. This one has to be her best performance to date.

Sultan

Anushka is one actress who has made a mark even in movies that starred superstars. Anushka carried the role of Aarfa, a female wrestler, in Sultan effortlessly. From getting the nuances of a wrestler right to speaking in the perfect Haryanvi accent, Anushka was the perfect choice for Aarfa.

Pari

Who could have thought that Anushka Sharma would try her hands on horror genre too? But in Pari she gave a fantastic performance and was praised a lot. She also produced the movie and was appreciated to back a film with such a different concept.

Sui Dhaaga

Last in our list is Sui Dhaaga. For this movie, Anushka was in the news because of her memes, but when the film released, it was proved that the actress can carry such de-glam characters too. Mamta surely stole our hearts with her simplicity.

Meghan Markle's 'With Love, Meghan' renewed for season 2 despite critic backlash and ratings

Despite being panned by reviewers, Meghan Markle's 'With Love, Meghan'has managed to secure a second season, and it is almost true that controversy still fuels viewership. The eight-episode show, which premiered on Tuesday, features the Duchess of Sussex sharing cooking, gardening, and hosting tips from a stunning California estate. Despite being labelled “gormless lifestyle filler” by *The Guardian* and an “exercise in narcissism” by *The Telegraph*, the series has found its way into Netflix’s top 10 in 47 countries, including the U.S., Canada, and South Africa.

The show’s renewal was announced just hours after its debut, with Meghan sharing the news on Instagram in her signature playful style. Wearing a hat that read “lettuce romaine calm,” she posted, “Lettuce romaine calm… or not (!) because I'm thrilled to share that Season 2 of *With Love, Meghan* is coming!” She added, “If you're loving Season 1, just wait until you see the fun we cooked up on Season 2!”

Women in their villain era: Ditching the ‘Good Girl’ act and owning unapologetic power

Let’s face it: the world has never been a safe space for women. It’s a place where we’re told to smile while being catcalled, to be polite while being undermined, and to shrink ourselves to fit into the tiny, suffocating box labelled “likeable.” In a world that often feels set against them with unsafe streets, glass ceilings, impossible beauty standards, and a relentless demand to be nice, women have had enough. They are done playing nice. The good girl act is out, and the villain era is in. And when they decided to break free? Oh honey, they did it with a bang.

This is the age of women flipping the script, ditching the nice girl manual, and embracing their inner bad guy. And why wouldn’t we? When the world is a dumpster fire of double standards, violence, and impossible expectations, sometimes the only way to survive is to become the villain they already think you are. And let’s be real: when women stop playing by the rules, it’s not a breakdown. It’s a breakthrough.
