Actor Anushka Sharma, whose recent-most endeavor 'Bulbbul' released on Netflix last week, has thanked audiences for their stellar response to the film. Calling it a big risk for her and her brother/co-producer Karnesh Ssharma, she said, “Thank you for all the love!”

She also released a statement saying, “The idea that Clean Slate Filmz would one day create a genre of our own was never an intentional move by us. We, however, always wanted to create a style of story-telling that celebrates women and their spirit.”

Directed by Anvita Dutt, starring Tripti Dimri, Rahul Bose and Avinash Tiwary, 'Bulbbul' is a period fantasy film. Anushka said, “Portrayal of women in our cinema has always been skewed and lopsided. I felt that as an actress I decided that I will correct this as much as I can through my productions.” She added that Karnesh and she “really put our necks on the line to make projects that we hope will be clutter-breaking.”

Anushka added, “Karnesh and I aren’t scared storytellers. We make each project thinking we have nothing to lose. We are non-conformists and that’s what has really, really helped us to explore and create. It is a huge milestone moment for us at Clean Slate Filmz because both Pataal Lok and now Bulbbul have got great reviews and janta ka appreciation,” she said.
