Anushka Sharma has wrapped up the shoot for her upcoming film Chakda Xpress, the actor took to Instagram to make the announcement. In the photos that were shared, former Indian pacer Jhulan Goswami, on whose life the biopic is based, was also seen cutting the wrap cake and posing with clapboard.

“It’s a wrap on #ChakdaXpress and thank you @JhulanGoswami for the final clap to bring an end to the shoot,” wrote Anushka, as she shared the photos.
