Anushka Sharma is one of the very popular and loved stars in the country. With his amazing work onscreen, the actress got immense love and praise from the world. But who would have known that she is the same girl of 15 who got rejected by the industry?

The actress said in an interview with DNA in 2017, “I have faced rejection from the age of 15. I don’t talk about it because there’s no need to do that. But I was constantly getting dropped from shows, picked for an ad and then would get replaced. All that has happened to me, too. Obviously, all that is also an integral part of the industry and life in general. But to experience that at the tender age of 15, to be subjected and be judged purely on the basis of how you look, it can be very mentally damaging as well. It hits your self-esteem. I have dealt with it”

she also added on the indirect remarks made by the casting directors or the producers on sets, “I’m intelligent enough to understand what they are saying. They might just tell you, ‘The look wasn’t right’. That’s an indirect way of talking about the physical aspect of you. It will always be backed by some politically correct statements, which is fake and to me, that’s far more disrespectful,”

The actress is currently indulged and cherishing her motherhood, and is spending some good quality time with her husband and daughter Vamika.
