Early Career:
Initially Anushka thought of making it big in the fashion industry as a model. She had no dreams of acting in films then. She even said once, ?I can?t see myself doing anything else?. Fortunately she was chosen to be Wendell Rodrick?s model at the Lakme Fashion Week for his Les Vamps Show. Later she was picked to be Rodrick?s finale model at the Spring Summer 2007 Collection. Anushka Sharma enrolled with the Elite Modeling Agency. Yash Chopra was looking for someone to essay the role of a small town Punjab girl. Elite Modeling Agency sent Anushka?s portfolio to Yash Raj Studio and in 2008, she got her dream debut in Aditya Chopra?s Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi where she portrayed the role of Taani. It was a dream debut in all regards. Firstly, she got paired with Shah Rukh Khan who is one of the leading actors of Bollywood in her very first movie and secondly, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi became a box office success. The songs were popular and her role stood apart even opposite SRK.

Other mainstream movies:
Although Anushka Sharma became a household name soon after the popularity of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, other directors, film makers and producers could not rope her in their films to invest on her new found success. This was because of the fact that she was bound by a three film contract with Yash Raj Films. That is why the year 2009 did not see her taking part in any films. Anushka?s second film, Badmaash Company made under the banner of Yash Raj Films was released on 7 May, 2010. The cast also included Shahid Kapoor, Meiyang Chang and Vir Das in the other roles. The film was an average grosser at the Bollywood box office. The film got mixed bag of reviews from the film critics.

In the year 2010 itself, Anushka Sharma completed her part of the three film contract with the Yash Raj Films by starring in Band Baaja Baaraat, a romantic comedy. This film was released on 10 December, 2010 and also marked the debut of newcomer Ranveer Singh as actor and Maneesh Sharma as the director. The story of this film revolved around the business of wedding planning.

Anushka Sharma played the role of Shruti Kakkar, a typical Delhi Punjabi girl who has the dreams of setting up her own wedding planning company. Anushka herself commented that Band Baaja Baaraat was her best film till date. Band Baaja Baaraat went on to become a sleeper hit. The film grossed INR 21.44 crore. This was the first time in her three films acting career that a film?s success rested entirely on the shoulders of Anushka Sharma (who was just two films old than her co star, the debutant Ranveer Singh). Anushka went on to win several awards for her acting in Band Baaja Baaraat. The only time she won so many awards was after the success of her first film Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. Ending her three film contract with the Yash Raj Studios, Anushka started filming for her fourth film titled Patiala House alongside Nikhil Advani and Akshay Kuamr. This was her first venture outside the Yash Raj camp. Patiala House released on 11 February, 2011. The film was an average grosser at the box office but Anushka?s performance was critically acclaimed once again.
