Bollywood actress Vidya Balan is doing every bit that she can to deliver her best in Vishal Bharadwaj’s Ishqiya. For this, she even joined a 10-day workshop with her co-star Naseeruddin Shah.

“The character that Vidya is playing in Ishqiya is very complex and difficult to enact. Vidya thought that the way to emote the character on screen was best learnt from Naseeruddin Shah because the veteran actor is a master at it,” a source close to the actress said.

Vidya Balan has indeed got a winner in her hands in the film ‘Ishkiyaan’ but in spite of her prowess in acting, it is not a cakewalk when it comes to acting in a creative venture of Vishal Bharadwaj.

She now has the additional responsibility of speaking Hindi in a pure U.P dialect as the film’s story is set in a small town in the state.

The film will hit the floors in October and by then the actress has to learn the dialogues in the way the makers want her to speak.

For the forthcoming film Ishkiyaan, Bollywood actress Vidya Balan is now learning a UP dialect. Directed by Abhishek Chaubey, the Vishal Bharadwaj production features Naseeruddin Shah alongside Arshad Warsi and Vidya Balan. The scrip is written by Vishal and Abhishek and the film features the same language that is heard in Omkara, directed by Vishal.

A unit source informs, “Vishal and Abhishek have written the script of Ishkiyaan. The film has the same lingo that one hears in Vishal’s Omkara. When Vishal narrated the script to Vidya, she was apprehensive about her ability to deliver the dialogues fluently in this dialect. Being a South Indian, she was not very comfortable with the rural dialect. Though Vidya is fluent in Hindi, she insisted on learning the language before taking on the role.”
