Vidya Balan exclaims with enthusiasm, “Somebody thought of casting me in this role after writing it which was a huge thrill for me. It feels nice to get a character like this for an actor like me who has a certain image. I must confess this was my finest role till date.”

Vidya Balan has been characterized as the girl-next-door since she entered the industry. She’s always been the sweet, mature woman you’d want your parents to see you bring home. However, we also know she’s proven her versatility as an actress. In Abhishek Choubey’s directorial debut Ishqiya, Vidya Balan dons the role of a woman who’s well aware of her power over men.

May be Vidya Balan’s magic must have first happened to work upon the Censor Board before getting into effect with the public. Such a kind of thing is rare in Bollywood, though finally the film was certified as ‘A’.

Well atleast a limitation has been measured for the film, which surely does not suit the sense of those below ‘A’. Finally Arshad Warsi,Vidya Balan and Naseruddin Shah starrer has come out clean.
The director Abhishek Chaubhey to his surprise added, “Frankly, I expected I’d be asked for some kind of an explanation for the language and content and why they were necessary. I had gone prepared with dossiers on every graphic word and shot. To my surprise, I wasn’t asked for any explanation. I was given an ‘Adults’ certificate with no cuts at all. I guess it’s a sign of how far censorship has come in our country.”

An avowed teetotaler, Vidya Balan had to play drunk for the song ‘Ibn Batuta’ in her upcoming film Ishqiya which marks for her a radical departure from the image of a demure, elegant woman Vidya has made for herself in B-town.

The song, canned last month, has all three, Vidya, Arshad Warsi and Naseeruddin Shah, carousing to the beats of Vishal Bharadwaj’s perky composition.

Pretending to be sloshed was one of the easiest things Vidya has had to do for ‘Ishqiya’. She mouthed desi, vulgar expletives and even shot a steamy scene with Arshad.

The last thing you expect of the demure and elegant Vidya Balan is to hear her say vulgar expletives, or play a cunning seductress, or worst still, drink and carouse. All this and more she will be seen doing in director Abhishek Choubey’s film Ishqiya.

Apprehensive at first, once Vidya got down to slipping into her character in the film, she had fun.
