'Sultan' goes to Anushka Sharma

It's a big dream come true for Anushka Sharma, as the actress will star opposite superstar Salman Khan in 'Sultan'. Yash Raj Films has confirmed that its prodigy Anushka will star in the production house's upcoming "Sultan" thereby ending rounds of speculation. The news has come almost a year after the movie was announced and names of a slew of actresses from Kangana Ranaut, Deepika Padukone, Kriti Sanon and Parineeti Chopa cropped up for the lead role. The rumour of Anushka's involvement first surfaced a few months ago but then she denied, saying she was never offered the film. Now, YRF's casting director Shanoo Sharma took to Twitter to announce that the "Bombay Velvet" star has been roped in for the wrestling drama.
