Hot off the success of The Dirty Picture, Vidya Balan is prepared to look in yet one more female-centric role along with her next Bollywood movie, Kahaani. If there’s something that Vidya seems keen on, it’s bringing variety into the jobs she portrays on screen. From a pretty item girl in Dirty Picture, she is going to now transform right into a hapless pregnant wife.
The kahaani of Kahaani
Kahaani is the tale of Vidya Bagchi, played by Vidya Balan, who comes from London to Kolkata looking for her missing husband. There are several difficulties which she must face before she will be able to unravel the reality about her spouse. For one, she is 7 months pregnant and absolutely new and alone within the festive city of Kolkata. Absolutely adamant on locating her lost hubby, Vidya begins a ruthless search. That too with only fragments from her memories about him to rely on.
Every clue and lead appear to reach a dead end. Everyone she meets seem oblivious to the whereabouts of her husband and tell her husband doesn't exist. Slowly, Vidya realises that the waters are deeper than they appear. In a city steeped in lies, Vidya is hell-bent on learning the reality about her husband, although it’s for unborn child. And she’s willing to stake her own life.
So that’s the kahaani of Kahaani. Seems quite the gripper, this one. Let’s hope the tale and screenplay keep us involved enough to forget our boring drab, insipid lives. We’re quite skeptical though for Sujoy Ghosh has few notable films to his credit (Aladin, Home Delivery and Jhankar Beats).
Says Vidya Balan:
“It’s one of the vital few characters that I MAY perform with utmost ease and effortlessly because I’d joke with my friends as to how differently women walk after they are pregnant. I also tried to duplicate the best way they take deep breathes in between.”
