  • “Arshad as an Actor is Quite Understated” Says Actor and RJ Vidya Balan

    Published on April 20, 2019

    An actress who keeps getting better with time, Vidya Balan is one who silences her critics by winning applauds aplenty. Be it any character, the versatile actress knows exactly how to ace the role with a brilliant performance. In a fresh new avatar, Vidya is enjoying her latest role as an RJ for the very first time on 92.7 BIG FM’s Muthoot Blue ‘Dhun Badal Ke Toh Dekho with Vidya Balan’. On a Friday special episode, Mumbai Ka Sabse Bada Struggler – RJ Abhilash, interviews the newest radio jockey in tinsel town, where she will be revisiting her films that have made the audience aware and encouraged them to bring about a positive change in society. This time around, Vidya reminisces about the time she shot for the 2010 hit Ishiqiya, alongsideNaseerudin Shah and Arshad Warsi.

    When asked if any film has ever had a positive impact on her life, Vidya Balan referred to Ishqiya and said, “I think I was reincarnated through Ishqiya. Before that, I’d done a couple of films for which I was criticized a lot. I was facing a lot of flak in the media  because of my weight and the clothes I wore. I was very confused as to what kind of films I should do as nothing was exciting enough. When I was doing Ishqiya, I came in touch with the reason why I became an actor. I remembered my urge to experience multiple lives in this one life, as the reason behind choosing acting as a profession. Thats when I really started enjoying my own space.”

    Shedding more light on her co stars for the film, Vidya commented, “Arshad, I feel is very understated. He is one of the best actors I’ve worked with. In fact when it comes to comedy, he is one of the very best in the country, for he improvises with every take. His spontaneity makes the scene very exciting and keeps you constantly on your toes. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. And Naseerji, well, he is so natural that you can’t really figure if he’s acting or that is his real self. The vibe was really nice on our set having them around. Moreover, I was very happy as I was rediscovering myself as an actor. Naseerji would call me Miss Giggles as I kept laughing on the sets. Plus, I was already friends with Arshad because of Lage Raho Munnabhai, resulting in an exceptional experience for me”
