Producing is a challenging task

Anushka Sharma was asked whether producing was an easy task for her. She said that at this point of life, producing could be scary. She claimed how when she started out, acting came naturally to her. Production, however, required more decision making. There are a lot of variables that one has to consider and these are also changing constantly.

Sharma said that in order to do production the right way, one has to be very strong-minded. Acting is more of an individualistic process as it is developing a character with the help of the director, she added. Most of the work done is by the person on their own. In comparison to production, acting it easier to carry forward. In the end, Anushka shared that she can now express herself as a producer and thus she is happy to be at the unique place she is currently in.
