Vidya Balan, who will be seen sharing the same frame with actor Arshad Warsi in upcoming film “Ishqiya”, says her co-star hasn’t got his due in Bollywood and is underutilised as an actor.

“Arshad is a brilliant actor. He is very versatile. I feel he is underutilised in our cinema. I think he can be one of those European actors who can play any role with as much ease. He is wonderful and I share a great camaraderie with him. He is really yet to get his due,” the actress told IANS.

These days Vidya Balan is looking far prettier than she has ever looked. Her intense eyes sparkle with mirth, and her wide smile tells the story of a gratifying existence. Vidya, in her own words, is “herself” these days and has quit being someone else. May be that’s making the difference!

In a candid interview with Spicezee’s Swati Chaturvedi in her celebrity chat show ‘Kahiye Janab’, Vidya Balan opened up about her upcoming film ‘Ishqiya’, romance with Shahid Kapur and love for SRK.

Swati: Vidya, you are doing a film called ‘Ishqiya’, which is about ‘Ishq’(love) but what about real-life love?

If you thought that Vidya Balan has become “shameless in front of the camera”, as she recently admitted in a TV interview, after hearing her bold dialogue in Paa and the expletives she has used in Ishqiya (as is evident in the promos), this one is for you. She might be open to experimental roles but Vidya is still at times very much the girl-nextdoor in her heart.

Vidya Balan`s Ishqiya is too abusive to be shown Debutant director Abhishek Chaubey’s film, Ishqiya, has to be re-shot as the language of the film is too abusive. This is after a focus group told the team to re-edit the film. The producers, Shemaroo, have even asked Vishal Bhardwaj (who is Abhishek’s mentor) to be present when the film is being edited.

Starring Arshad Warsi, Vidya Balan and Naseeruddin Shah, the film made some of the women in the audience uncomfortable.

Think of Vidya Balan and the first thing that comes to mind is the picture of this demure, elegant, well-behaved, eloquent woman who would never use foul language for anyone, even for foes. And now imagine her discomfort when she had to mouth the choicest of desi expletives for her role of a rural girl in the upcoming movie Ishqiya.

“Oh! I was very apprehensive while using those slangs. I have never used them in my real life but I had to because the script demanded. When you will see this movie, you will understand that it is justified. The movie belongs to a certain terrain where slangs are part of their lingo,” Vidya is quoted to have said in an interview.

She stepped in as a girl-next-door in a family comedy serial ‘Hum Paanch’. Then she slowly started taking the Bollywood steps. With each movie, we saw a different Vidya emerging every time on-screen. Try how much ever; she is not able to shed her homely looks and coy image. She tried her hand at glamour roles but was met with fashion goof-ups and that proved that sexy tag is not her cuppa. Now she is back in de-glam role with Vishal Bhardwaj’s ‘Ishqiya’.

Vidya Balan is back in news, this time it’s neither for her outrageous dressing sense nor for her newly gained slim-trim avatar. Guess what? The south siren who has shot for some really intimate scenes in Vishal Bharadwaj’s upcoming film ISHQIYA with co-star Arshad Warsi with great ease, apparently now has expressed her reservations over a luscious smooch. Producer Vishal Bharadwaj too was all praises for the actress who carried on with the scenes exhibiting aesthetics. But looks like no kiss for this Miss!
