Vidya Balan interview


How was it playing Silk Smitha?
I have never enjoyed being a woman more than in The Dirt Picture. It celebrates the woman like a rainbow in all her colours. Some people might have a problem in digesting the character but as a woman I am sure you will like the film.

Silk Smitha was known as a soft porn star. Are you afraid that you might inherit the tag after this film (just as Emraan Hashmi got the serial kisser label after Murder)?
I am an actor and I am portraying Silk’s character in The Dirty Picture. So I don’t think there will be a possibility of that tag being attached to my name or anything of that sort. I just hope it adds another shade to me as an actor.

How did Ekta Kapoor (producer of The Dirty Picture) zero on you for playing Silk? 
How Ekta Kapoor thought of me, how Rajat Aroraa could have written so beautifully…I don’t know. If I do a good job, I take the responsibility. No…honestly, if I do a good job, I have to thank the vision, to the great writing and the support.
