He added, "I started evolving when Anushka came into my life and vice versa. We have both helped each other grow. I wouldn't have been able to go on with so much composure and so much passion and zeal if it wasn't for her in my life."

Workwise, after a short hiatus and embracing motherhood, Anushka Sharma is all set to grace the screen again with the Netflix film Chakda Xpress which traces the journey of former captain of India national women's cricket team Jhulan Goswami.
