Actress Anushka Sharma is upset nowadays with all those who are making claims that her alleged boyfriend and cricketer Virat Kohli is also a producer to her next home production “Phillauri”. She took to social media to convey the message – “I am more than capable of producing and promoting my own films.”
She openly expressed her irritation and made it clear that the producers of “Phillauri” are FOX Star Hindi and Clean State Films. In a tweet, she wrote, “Putting to rest some rumours that have been doing the rounds for some days now”
She also criticized media for making such baseless claims. Here’s her tweet:

Here’s what she wrote,
“Phillauri is produced by FOX STAR HINDI & CLEAN SLATE FILMS. So those TV channels/newspapers/websites claiming anything else, please check FACTS, practice responsible journalism & have some shame. By making such bogus claims and validating this rubbish by your so called ‘source’, not only are you disrespecting me & the hard work I have put in over the years to be where I am, but also, all the people who have worked on this film. Freedom of press comes with accountability & your fake sources are never accounted for.”
The actress added,
“I have always led my career with dignity & often chose to maintain a dignified silence on many untruthful stories, that doesn’t mean you can take my silence as my weakness and say anything without checking with me or my team. For someone who makes a living out of maligning people, it must definitely be hard to believe that a person can stand on their own feet and do something meaningful with their life.”
She continued,
“And next time these same people come wanting to talk about ‘women empowerment’ and ‘women in films today’ do remember this is what you do to ‘women in films’ who are trying to change the narrative & take charge of their own careers. This must be just another story for you but it’s someone’s life you are toying with. I am more than capable of producing and promoting my own films. Thank you.”
WOW! That was some bashing, don’t you think so?
