Ace actress and producer Anushka Sharma completed the Kolkata schedule of her upcoming feature Chakda Xpress, on Saturday. The sports drama is a biopic on former Indian cricket captain Jhulan Goswami.

The upcoming film is directed by Prosit Roy and it traces Goswami's journey facing the hindrances posed by misogynistic politics to fulfil her dream of playing cricket for India. The 34-year-old actor announced the schedule wrap with a photo dump on her Instagram. In one of the photos, she was captured hugging Vamika tightly. While other photos captured the region's delicacies and sweets. Sharma shared the post with the caption, "Eat-Pray-Love. My Kolkata photo dump! #ScheduleWrap #ChakdaXpress #Kolkata."
