It'll be cool to have 'Charlie's Angels' in India: Anushka

June 27, 2016

Mumbai, Jun 27: Anushka Sharma feels it will be interesting if films on the lines of "Charlie's Angels" with actresses doing action sequences are made in Bollywood.

AnushkaThe "NH 10" star, who plays the role of a wrestler in her upcoming film "Sultan" said to have an all female cast in an action project would be interesting.

"Wrestling is not an action it is a sport. I hope it happens (more action films are offered to heroines). I think it will be cool to have a film like 'Charlie's Angels' or 'Ghostbusters' with all female cast. It will be fun and interesting," Anushka said in an interview here.

The 28-year-old actress said she was initially not sure if she could pull off the character of a wrestler. "We have a certain perception about the way wrestlers look. I had not seen much of wrestling. I thought I was working with a disadvantage. I am playing a female wrestler and there is novelty in that," she said.

"I researched and found out that there are different weight categories. I saw some international wrestlers who were tall and toned like me, so I was relieved," she added. For her role of a wrestler from Haryana, Anushka had to undergo professional training in the sport and learn local language.

"While I was training, I was finding it little awkward as while wrestling your head is under someone's armpit or around waist. I was like how can I do it. I was a bit hesitant. When I saw myself, I realized I was not doing it properly.

"I think if you want to do something then you should go all out completely and be fearless," she said Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and produced by Yash Raj Films, "Sultan", starring Salman Khan in the lead role, releases this Eid.

"We are now tracking the call detail records (CDRs)," the police said.

The team also said that they will interrogate the family of Sushant Singh Rajput's former manager Disha Salian, who died few days before Sushant's death.

"We don't have post-mortem report details, CCTV footage or any information that has been collected by Mumbai Police during probe till now. Our Chief Minister has requested the Maharashtra Chief Minister to ask his police force to cooperate with us," the DGP added.

When asked if Bihar Police want CBI probe into the case, he said, "We are more than capable of doing an unbiased investigation. We hope that Mumbai Police will cooperate with us and we'll conclude the investigation."

Washington, Mar 11: Pop star Selena Gomez made some revelations about her personal life in a recent interview.

While explaining the lyrics of her song "Rare" on the 'Genius' YouTube channel, the 27-year-old said that there are times when she feels that she will ever be able to find a suitable partner for herself, reported Fox News.

"Some days when I wake up and I am annoyed and I am like, 'I am going to be alone forever.' But after that 15 minutes go away, I say to myself, 'I know that there is someone for everybody," the singer told in the seven-and-a-half minute long video.

However, she remains optimistic as she is still young and "this isn't the end all be all".

Elaborating upon the chorus of her song, Gomez opened up and said, "self-esteem and confidence is a constant struggle".

"It's getting better with time and age, but it will always be something that I'm working on," she added while explaining the lyrics further.

"So what I think is so important about this chorus is that it's acknowledging, 'Hey, I don't have it all. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I do know that I'm special,' and I think that is a humble approach of saying, 'Why don't you see that I am different?'" the singer added as reported by Fox News.

Touching upon her experiences from past relationships, she commented: "In certain relationships, I've heard and I've experienced and whatnot, I think men and women do it -- especially teenagers and young people in love -- is there's this satisfaction out of hurting someone because you know that they care. Purposefully putting someone down because they want to keep them at a level. I've had someone actually say that to me before".
