International Women's Day 2018: Presenting Anushka Sharma In Two-Part Throwback Series

New Delhi: Anushka Sharma will celebrate her 30th birthday in May this year but ahead of that, social media chanced upon two of her throwback photos. The actress included one in her Women's Day special post while the other one has been shared by her brother Karnesh Sharma. Anushka, who believes in "being original", urged women to "dance to your own beat" in her post, which comes with an adorable photo of a younger version of the actress. In the blast from the past, the young Anushka poses like a boss with her face partially covered in hair. "From that day on to now, I'm free and strong and all thats me, for the people who just let me be ... #HappyWomensDay to all those women who feel like this and men who help pave their way," is how Anushka captioned her new Instagram post.

Within just four hours, Anushka's photo garnered over 5 lakh 'likes' and 1,641 comments.
