Anushka Sharma reveals her role in Yash Chopra's SRK starrer Jab Tak Hai Jaan

Anushka is playing the role of a "very hardworking girl", says the white sari does not go with her character in the film.

"I know that there is something like an image about Yashji's heroines but maybe I am the new age Yash Chopra heroine. There is going to be a white chiffon sari but I am the white ganji girl and that's what I am going to be wearing," Anushka told PTI in an interview.

"My role is of a girl of 21-year-old girl who is very hard working and ambitious. She is working for Discovery channel and is trying to make a documentary. I don't fit into the saree image because of the character but she has the same emotions so it is a Yash Chopra love," says Anushka.

Chopra is directing 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' after a gap of eight years. "I would have had an incomplete career if I did not have a film by Yash Chopra because everyone called me an Yash Chopra heroine as I was launched by Yash Raj Films. I was doing lot of YRF films but I was not actually a Yash Chopra heroine till I did this film," says Anushka.

"Ladakh and Kashmir were very beautiful. I have never been to these two places, they are so stunning. I felt they are better than most of the European countries that I have been to. It was very refreshing to shoot there. I have never experienced that kind of terrain in India."

Apart from Chopra's film, the actress recently shooting for Vishal Bhardwaj's 'Matru Ki Bijli Ka Mandola'. She also stars in Rajkumar Hirani's 'Peekay' and Anurag Kashyap's 'Bombay Velvet'.
