Anushka Sharma , the debutante of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi , says in real life she is very much like her character in the film.

For a girl coming from modeling background to play a non-glamorous character convincingly in her first film may not be commonplace in Bollywood, but Anushka says she was quite comfortable in this transition from ramp to reel.

"Even modelling is a kind of performance. On the ramp you are representing a concept. In a film, you're projecting an individual. But the transition wasn't hard for me. Because in real life I'm as simple as the girl I play in 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi'. Yes, I do like to dress up and walk the ramp. But that isn't the real me," Anushka is quoted by IANS.

The girl says she loves modeling and had never thought of entering Bollywood until ‘Rab Ne…’ happened.

"I'm crazy about my modeling work. I love the ramp and the backstage banter. I moved to Mumbai a year ago. Movies were not a priority. I don't come from a film background, don't know how the industry works. I didn't know anyone here," Anushka is quoted.

Despite having no experience in films, Anushka did a commendably good job in her very first movie and got many compliments and good reviews as well. But the best compliment came from Yash Chopra .

"He (Yash Chopra) came up to me and said mine was one of the best performances he had seen by a debutante. He placed his hand on my head while saying this. So he was blessing me," Anushka is quoted.

Presently, Anushka has two more projects coming up with Yashraj Films.
