Veteran actor Dibyendu Bhattacharya has finally broken his silence on the long-delayed film Chakda Xpress, expressing both disappointment at the wait and immense praise for Anushka Sharma’s performance. The cricket biopic, based on the life of former Indian women’s team captain Jhulan Goswami, has been eagerly awaited by fans ever since it was first announced. However, delays in production and post-production have pushed the release multiple times, leaving audiences frustrated.
Speaking to the media at a recent event, Dibyendu, who plays a pivotal role in the film, shared, “It’s unfortunate that Chakda Xpress hasn’t released yet. We put a lot of heart into the project. I can say with full conviction that this is Anushka Sharma’s best performance so far. She completely immersed herself in Jhulan’s world.”
The Paatal Lok and Delhi Crime actor praised Anushka’s dedication to the physically demanding role, noting that she trained extensively to portray the iconic pacer authentically. “Anushka didn’t just act — she became Jhulan. From the bowling action to the emotional depth, she nailed every detail. Audiences are in for something truly powerful,” he added.

Bhattacharya also acknowledged the frustrations that come with film delays but remains optimistic: “Sometimes good films take time. I hope the wait will be worth it because Chakda Xpress deserves a wide release and the appreciation of a global audience.”
Produced by Anushka’s Clean Slate Filmz, Chakda Xpress was originally set to premiere on Netflix but is now reportedly undergoing strategic release planning. While no official release date has been confirmed, Bhattacharya’s recent remarks have reignited anticipation for what promises to be a landmark film in Indian sports cinema.
Fans continue to hope that the long wait ends soon — especially now that insiders are calling it Anushka Sharma’s career-best performance.
