The biographical sports drama is directed by Pari fame Prosit Roy. When Anushka Sharma shared the first look of the film on her Instagram, she penned a heartfelt note about Jhulan Goswami and the significance of the film.

Since Chakda 'Xpress was a tale of immense sacrifice, Anushka referred to it as a truly "special" movie. Based on the life of Jhulan Goswami, she described it as an “eye-opener into the world of women’s cricket.” 

Anushka shared, “At a time when Jhulan decided to become a cricketer and make her country proud on the global stage, it was very tough for women to even think of playing the sport. This film is a dramatic retelling of several instances that shaped her life and also women’s cricket.”

Expressing her pride in the story, Sharma added, “As a woman, I was proud to hear Jhulan’s story and it is an honor for me to try and bring her life to audiences and cricket lovers. As a cricketing nation, we have to give our women cricketers their due. Jhulan’s story is truly an underdog story in the history of cricket in India and the film is our celebration of her spirit.”
