Birthday Special: ‘You’re not the most good-looking girl’; Anushka Sharma REVEALS Aditya Chopra’s Brutal Advice

Anushka Sharma debuted in Bollywood opposite Shahrukh Khan in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and soon became many’s, favorite actresses.

As the actress turns 35 today, let’s look at the brutal advice she received from Aditya Chopra.

As per reports, in one of the episodes of Koffee With Karan, Anushka opened up about the advice, she said,  “I was on the fourth floor, in Aditya Chopra’s office. He just said, ‘Listen, I have a lot of belief in your talent. I think you are a very talented actress but I don’t think you are very good-looking. You’re not the most good-looking girl, so you have to make sure that you work really hard. You’re on for Taani (her character in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi).

 “When I left the office, I was very cool. I said thank you and I was very proper. At one point, I stopped the car because I realised I was crying. I was crying so much. My parents were not in town, so I called my mom and I said, ‘I can’t believe this is happening right now.” She also spoke about facing rejections before Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi and asserted, “I used to think I am very, very good-looking. Like, ‘Haan, haan, aise toh main bhi lag sakti hoon (Yeah, yeah, even I can look like this).’ If I just have the right make-up and right hair and all that. It’s only after I met Aditya Chopra that I saw myself on the monitor for the first time while shooting… I was in the dulhan ka joda (bridal attire). I saw myself the first time on screen and I was like, ‘He is right. I am not that good-looking,” she added.

However, now, she is loved by many and is enjoying a beautiful life with husband Virat Kohli and daughter Vama.
