From Ayushmann Khurrana, Aditi Rao Hydari and Nikhil Dwivedi:
NH10, which has opened to great reviews, is doubly special for Anushka who also produces as well as stars in the film.
NDTV's Saibal Chatterjee wrote in his review: "The focus of
NH10 is primarily on the harried figure that is fleshed out by co-producer and lead actress Anushka Sharma. She bears the burden rather well, conveying a range of moods as she moves from the vulnerable to the fearless in a battle in which the odds are stacked heavily against her." (
