Getting an opportunity to work with King Khan in the first film is an achievement of a lifetime. It’s a dream come true for any debutantes. Many established actors yearn to work with him but fail to get the chance. Luckiest of the lucky person only gets the golden opportunity to work with King Khan in their first break and one among them is the 19 years old Anushka Sharma who will play Shahrukh’s lady love in Rab De Bana De jodi.

Anushka is a model and hailed from Bangalore. She caught everyone’s sight during the last fashion week where she was chosen for the Wendell Roderick’s finale. Ever since, she has been flooded with endorsements. She will play a small town Punjabi girl in one of the biggest release of 2009. For quite sometime, Yashraj has been hunting for a fresh, new face to be paired opposite SRK and ultimately their search ended with Anushka. They feel she is the perfect girl for Shahrukh.

Though Anushka does not have any previous acting experience, Yashraj is sure that she will shine bright opposite the Baadshah. Many names like Sonam Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Kajol were suggested for the role. Sonam was even signed for the role but something did not work out and ultimately the golden break fell in Anushka’s lap.
