Stardom is more accessible says Anushka

In a career spanning less than a decade in Bollywood, known to be a tough space for outsiders, Anushka Sharma has carved a niche by slipping into a variety of roles with ease. The actress-producer says, as compared to earlier times, stardom is more accessible today.

Anushka doesn’t wish to restrict herself as an actress and would love to portray a new role with every film. She considers herself incapable of getting a tag like her co-stars and Bollywood superstars Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Salman Khan.

“It’s not common to give somebody a tag like ‘King of Romance’ (Shah Rukh) now. It’s a special thing. I don’t think that something like this… like we gave Mr Bachchan ‘The Angry Young Man’ tag, and we call Shah Rukh as ‘King of Romance’… can happen now.
