Anushka Sharma reveals the reason behind not signing films after Zero

Anushka Sharma is one of the most popular actresses in Bollywood who does at least one or two films in a year. However, after the release of Zero (2018), the talented actress did not take up any new projects, which set the tongue waggling. While some media outlets reported that she is in the family way, others went on to say that she is focusing more on her production ventures than films.

More than half a year post the release of Zero, Anushka Sharma has herself revealed the reason behind not signing any new film projects. In her latest interview to an entertainment magazine, the NH10 (2014) actor revealed that she was feeling too worked up and hence, needed to take two months off.


“That’s a conscious decision. I wanted to take a couple of months off after Zero. After I got married, it was like a whirlwind. I was back on the sets shooting for Sui Dhaaga: Made In India (2018) and later Zero. I was just working back to back. Whatever time I’d get, I’d try to balance and meet Virat. But I was feeling too worked up. I needed to take two months off. I told my team I don’t even want to read anything right now. It’s important as a creative person to take time off but you deny yourself that. Of course, there is pressure. You are constantly asked, “Which film are you signing?” said the actress.

While fans are waiting to see Anushka Sharma back on the silver again soon, she is currently busy with her digital production ventures. For the unversed, her production company Clean Slate Films is producing two digital series for Netflix, namely Bulbul and Mai.

TroyBoi returns to his Indian roots with Rootz EP using Lata Mangeshkar’s voice to redefine British diaspora music

Highlights:

  • TroyBoi’s five-track EP Rootz is a personal return to the sounds of his childhood, released via Ultra Records in September 2025.
  • The single Kabhi uses an officially cleared sample of Lata Mangeshkar’s vocal from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
  • Collaborations with Amrit Maan, Jazzy B and BombayMami plug Punjabi, Bhangra and south-Asian textures directly into modern trap and bass production.
  • This EP is part of a wider wave: British artists born into diasporas are using heritage not as garnish but as foundation.

Some albums hit you in ways you don’t see coming. Rootz is one of them. Not just another trap EP. TroyBoi, the London-born producer known for global bass and trap, has made something that’s also deeply personal. He didn’t just want to make music that bangs in clubs; instead, he wanted to reach back to the India of his childhood. And he did it with Rootz.

The track everyone’s talking about is Kabhi. Because it’s not just sampling Bollywood. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was officially cleared for use on a non-Bollywood release, a milestone reported by multiple outlets. It’s history. It’s memory. And it’s a bridge.
