Jhulan was considered as one of the fastest female pacers in the history of world cricket. Anusha Sharma posted on Instagram while talking about the upcoming flick calling it special and how Jhulan managed to excel in the field that is otherwise dominated by men.

The upcoming film is produced by Anushka and her brother Karnesh Ssharma’s Clean Slate Films and is directed by Prosit Roy. Anushka in her post mentioned that the film is special as it is a story about tremendous sacrifice and will also be an eye-opener in to the world of women’s cricket.
