New Delhi:
Anushka Sharma's last film JabTak Hai Jaan may have managed to get her into the elite 100crore club in Bollywood but the actress feels the newbenchmark would not help her much in her individual career.
With the feat, the 24-year-old actress also got closer tocontemporaries like Sonakshi Sinha and Asin, who have thehighest number of century hits to their credit along withseniors like Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif.
"I don't really understand how much being a part of this100 crore club genuinely helps me as an actress. I don't haveexperience to still ascertain how a 100 crore success couldmake any difference to my career.
"I am happy that people have liked my film but the way Ilook at it, sometimes there are films that cater to certainsegment of audience and may not always get those crores comingin. Jab Tak Hai Jaan has made money but I don't see any ofthat affecting me," Anushka told PTI.
The actress, who made her debut with Rab Ne Bana DiJodi opposite Shah Rukh Khan, ended 2012 on a high withdirector Yash Chopra's last film Jab Tak Hai Jaan turningout to be a success at the box office.
"I am really happy that the year ended well for me.People liked me for my performance and to hear something likethat is always nice. Honestly, being a part of Yashji's filmwas a huge honour," she said.
Anushka, who has worked with actors like SRK, RanveerSingh, Akshay Kumar and Shahid Kapoor, will be seen oppositeImran Khan in her upcoming Vishal Bhardwaj film Matru KiBijlee Ka Mandola and she is excited about the pairing.
"This is our first film together and it would be specialfor everyone. Since we have not done a film together in thepast, our pairing should be interesting. Our combination isstriking with Pankaj Kapoor as the third main lead."
Set in the rustic surroundings of a village in Haryana,Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola is a comedy-drama about Harryplayed by Pankaj, a wealthy industrialist, who loves hisdrink, his daughter Bijlee (Anushka) and the unusual bond theyboth share with Harry's man Friday, Matru (Imran).
The film also stars Arya Babbar and Shabana Azmi insupporting roles and is slated to release on January 11.
