Anushka shocked everyone with her first look from film Sultan; it surprised a lot of people when the actress was picked to play a wrestler named Aarfa in Sultan. From the first look of the film, her persona hasn’t banged her village girl act. Aarfa, the wrestler, takes on the boys and wins.
In the film, the PK actress handles domestic tasks with ease. There is a scene in the film in which Aarfa has to make cow dung cakes a common form of household fuel used in Haryana. While the film’s production team was iffy about her comfort with cow dung, she surprised everyone.
When asked about her Aarfa characters in the film Anushka said, “Her strength lies in her quiet but resolute ability to manage work at home, on a farm and still focus on wrestling. Every Indian home has a hero in the woman who keeps everything together, and ensures that the family is cared for. Through Aarfa, I hope to highlight their strength and contribution to society and family.”
