For the unversed, Anushka Sharma had claimed in 2014 that she had been using 'a temporary lip enhancing tool'.

Anushka Sharma is one of the most talented and respected actors of her generation. Anushka is not only loved for her on-screen persona but is also admired for how she represents herself off the camera. However, in the year 2014, her intensified lip pout had put a major focus on her. 

Fans took notice of Anushka Sharma's lip job when she appeared in 'Koffee With Karan'. The actor was heavily trolled for her appearance at the time. Later in 2016, in an interview with Vogue magazine, Anushka had accepted that she had done 'temporary lip enhancement'.

She had said, "I have nothing to hide. So when I spoke about my lip job, a lot of people called me brave for coming out. But I did what I had to for my role in 'Bombay Velvet'. I’m not going to lie and say I didn’t; I had to take ownership. I wanted fans to know that I’m human and not perfect."

For the unversed, Anushka had also said in 2014 that she had been using 'a temporary lip enhancing tool'.

On a more personal front, Anushka is a doting mother now as she recently welcomed her first child with her husband and Indian skipper Virat Kohli. Recently, while revealing the name of their daughter, 'Virushka' wrote, "We have lived together with love, presence, and gratitude as a way of life but this little one, Vamika has taken it to a whole new level! Tears, laughter, worry, bliss - emotions that have been experienced in a span of minutes sometimes! Sleep is elusive but our hearts are SO full Thanking you all for your wishes, prayers, and good energy." 

It was in August last year that Virat and Anushka had announced that they were expecting a child together.

On the work front, Anushka hasn't been seen in films since the release of her film, 'Zero' co-starring Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif.
