Anushka so far played glamorous rolls so far in almost all the films in her career. For the first time, she signed the dotted line for 'Arundhati' to prove her performance capabilities.

She agreed to act in the film, with a strong urge to win the hearts of women and family audiences, which was produced by Shyamprasad Reddy.

There was a big talk that the film would earn her a special identity on the lines of Vijayashanti.

Though the film started rolling, there was no information as how much shooting was completed and how long it will take for its completion.

The film's release is being delayed on the pretext of delay in post-production works like graphic works. Though the film's fate hanged in balance, Anushka is leaving no stone unturned to keep herself busy in the industry.

She is presently playing heroine in 'Chintakayala Ravi' opposite Venkatesh, besides some other films opposite young heroes like Raviteja and Gopichand.

One had to wait and watch when 'Arundhati' would see the light.
