Vidhu Vinod Chopra's Parineeta was her foothold into the big world of Bollywood. But whatever little doubts remained about Vidya Balan's capability as an actor were laid to rest with her performance in Lage Raho Munnabhai.
CNN-IBN Entertainment Editor Rajeev Masand caught up with Vidya Balan to quiz her about movies and marriage.
Rajeev Masand: You’re a Bombay girl. You grew up here. Do your friends tease you and say ‘Arree heroine ho gayee hai (Oh she is a heroine now)’?
Vidya Balan: No. Except my closest friends, the others haven’t come to terms with it. The other day one of them said ‘lets hop onto a rickshaw and go across’. But neither I or she realised that post Parineeta, I could do it, but post Munnabhai rickshawallahs recognise me and when he did, it got a little awkward because I wasn’t dressed like an actor.
I don’t think we’ve come terms with the kinds of changes that being in films has brought about. I think we slowly will. But there are some who say ‘star ho gayee hai’ (she is a star now) so I say ‘Ab kya Karen (So I say what can I do).
Rajeev Masand: What’s the oddest story that you have read about yourself?
Vidya Balan: I heard that I have a husband and two kids somewhere in the US. I was happy about the husband but not about the kids.
Rajeev Masand: The two kids you thought was a little bit too much.?
Vidya Balan: I said Chalo Koi to hai (There is somebody atleast). But no such luck so I don’t know where these stories emanate from. They sometimes come up with bizarre stories and I wonder what inspires people to do that.
Rajeev Masand: You have been linked to several co-stars whether it was Saif during Parineeta, John when you were doing Salaam-E-Ishaq and even one of your directors. Does it ever get weird when you go back to the set and work with them?
Vidya Balan: No. It’s absolutely the same. Like you said about my director, Pradeep sarkar, everybody around us knows what the equation is so nobody is actually whispering and talking about it. We have just been ourselves.
But the first time it happened, I was just shocked that someone could write something bizarre about me. But now I have come to accept it. I’m a quick learner.
