It has been quite a few days that Vidya Balan is in the news for her characterization of Silk Smitha in Dirty Picture. For the role, the actress was asked to put on some extra weight – as Silk Smitha was a tad fleshier than what Vidya Balan today is.
To suit the role of Silk Smith and to get into the character a bit more, it would be excellent if Vidya puts on some more kilos. However, taking into account her other engagements and the dates that she has already allocated, it would be highly impossible for Vidya to put on the weight and again get in shape for her next project in time.
But what is the way out of all this? So, the solution was to use the skills of the makeup men and cosmeticians and make Vidya look “voluptuous” – exactly how Smitha looked. One source close to the film producer Ekta Kapoor has said that, it is high time Vidya gained some weight for those scenes for which she should have been ready until now.
Prosthetics will now come in handy for the celebrated producer. Is it too late for Ekta Kapoor to inform Vidya about the increase in weight? Had it been so, would she have managed to gain weight? Then would she have lost it again for her next film?
Well, the questions are innumerable. But the production team seems to have found the answer. (Would Vidya had increased the weight had she done what she is doing in the picture earlier?)
