When Anushka Sharma recalled how her mother manifested Yash Raj Films for actress by putting note inside turtle; 'Hope my daughter...'

As a devoted follower of Bollywood and a fan of Anushka Sharma’s captivating performances, I must say her life story is nothing short of magical. The way her mother manifested her dream for Anushka to star in a Yash Raj Films movie is truly inspiring. It goes to show that the power of positive thinking and belief can indeed bring about extraordinary outcomes.


Anushka Sharma initially appeared on the big screen in 2008 as part of Aditya Chopra’s directorial effort Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi alongside Shah Rukh Khan. Since then, she has been a leading lady in various successful movies such as Band Baaja Baaraat, Jab Tak Hai Jaan, PK, NH10, Dil Dhadakne Do, Sultan, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Pari, Sanju, and many others.

Back in the day, I can’t help but reminisce about an incredible moment when my favorite actress revealed how her mom, Ashima Sharma, somehow orchestrated a Yash Raj Films movie without me even knowing it was in the works! Here’s what blew my mind: Her mother wrote a message inside a turtle, and guess what? That wish came true!

In an episode of Simi Selects India’s Most Desirable, hosted by Simi Garewal, Anushka Sharma shared a touching story about her mother, Ashima Sharma, who once expressed a desire to see her in a film produced by Yash Raj.

As a storyteller with a wealth of personal experiences to draw from, I find the tale shared by the speaker particularly captivating. The narrative of receiving a film offer while driving, resulting in uncontrollable joy and subsequent tears, is relatable on an emotional level. The unexpected twist of the turtle and its Feng Shui significance adds an element of whimsy and magic to the story that resonates with my own life experiences. I believe this story serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of cherishing our dreams and the moments when they come true, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant those moments may be.

In another statement, the PK actress revealed that her mother hadn’t told her about this before, but when she learned that Anushka had landed the role, her mother pulled out and displayed a letter to the actress. The Dil Dhadakne Do actress then shared a note penned by her mother expressing hope that her daughter would star in a Yash Raj production.

In my own words, I can’t help but marvel at this unexpected twist of fate – a dream nurtured by my mother for me to tread the boards as an actress, much like the captivating Anushka.

In the meantime, you’ll find Anushka featured in Chakda XPress, a movie that tells the story of cricketer Jhulan Goswami. As for when it will be released, we don’t have that information just yet.
