With NH10, Phillauri and Pari, Anushka Sharma has surely marked herself as an actor who believes in balancing between acting and the responsibility to promote good and path-breaking content on-screen. While she has been doing out and out commercial cinema, the 29-year-old actor has also been choosing out-of-the-box content to produce under her production house, Clean Slate Films, which marked its debut with NH10 in 2015. Now recognising the effort in promoting content-driven or experimental cinema, the Dadasaheb Phalke Foundation has decided to honour her contribution.
The actor would be receiving the Dadasaheb Phalke Excellence Award for 2018 for her efforts in backing clutter-breaking content which has become genre-defining success stories.
