The Real Picture

Actress Vidya Balan visited Fame Fun-n-Shop at Fatimanagar and Ranka Jewellers,Laxmi Road,on Tuesday to promote her upcoming flick,Kahaani. At her charming best,the actress first apologised for coming in a tad late before proceeding to tell her story. “Kahaani is the story of a woman who has come from London in search of her missing husband. While people in Kolkata keep trying to convince her that there is no one of that name,she bears the biggest proof of his existence,his child,” she said. She had to wear extensive prosthetics for her role of a six-month pregnant woman. “I even visited gynecologists to take their opinion on the walk and gait

of a pregnant woman,” she said. “When I came into the industry,it was with the idea of playing characters that were very different from one another. That’s what I’ve been doing all along. I’m glad that the movies are faring well at the box office,” she added.
