She takes you to spots where different artistes don't. Some of the time profound, dim, obscure corners. Breathing life into each minute on screen — with her inquisitive eyes and chuckled giggling. On the off chance that her stark strokes in silver screen daze you, an ardent discussion with her abandons you expanding in wonder. She uncovers her feelings of trepidation and scars. No conceal, no acts. Simply the Real Picture. She's broken generalizations, made new standards. She's been delegated and scrutinized. She knew this ride would not have been simple. It got unpleasant, and she got intense. Days before the arrival of 'Kahaani 2: Durga Rani Singh', coordinated by Sujoy Ghosh, Vidya Balan, sits beautiful (with no make-up), watching out at the ocean in her stunning condo and demystifies a few questions, a few myths, a few mysteries. Like I said...nothing fake, all crude and genuine.
You've said that you get drawn towards ladies driven movies? Do you feel such parts draw in you?
I believe it's a two-way road. I have been offered such parts since "Parineeta" (2005), and after that "Ishqiya" went along (2010). With these movies I was making infant strides and it topped with 'The Dirty Picture' (2011) and "Kahaani" (2012). Despite the fact that even in regular, business Hindi movies, my parts dependably had substance. Likewise, I believe it's an element of the circumstances that we are living in. We were at a point where we were prepared to recount these stories, so it opened up more entryways for scholars who had composed such stories, however kept them away imagining that they will never be made. Abruptly, there was new trust, I was doing these movies and they were fruitful. After that, some of these movies didn't work, yet it was not that my decisions had changed.
The 50's and 60's had some impactful movies driven by ladies. We regularly have a tendency to overlook that as a result of the deficiency of such subjects that took after...
Yes, that is the reason it is known as the Golden Era of silver screen. In spite of the fact that frequently in those movies, despite everything you respected the conciliatory part of ladies. In that sense, there has been a change; there is no glorification or denunciation any longer. In today's motion pictures, you consider ladies to be people who have blemishes, constraints and desire. Prior, there were few like that, yet the rest to a great extent got their personality from the men around them. Presently, we have personalities of our own and that is getting deciphered on screen.
You separated while working in 'Kahaani 2'. Do the characters you play influence you profoundly?
I have come to acknowledge that I am extreme and I don't have a clue about some other approach to be, which is the reason I require downtime after each film. I have to do different things like travel, read, watch movies and laze around. I just do movies that I am totally persuaded about. So whether the film works or not, I don't think twice about it later.
Five hits in succession, and you were the toast of Bollywood. At that point it came smashing down with a progression of lemon. Given how extraordinary you are, is disappointment additionally much harder to manage?
Yes, the shock is a lot more, particularly in the wake of seeing such a high. After a string of fruitful movies individuals let me know, 'You have the midas touch. How would you pick such scripts?' I have done protracted talks and sessions on that...and then these movies began coming up short (chuckles!). I thought to myself...I trust I didn't give these discussions too soon in my life. It was decimating. I experienced a crazy ride, additionally in light of the fact that I was experiencing medical problems. By and large, when you are physically low, everything else gets amplified. Whenever "Ghanchakkar" fizzled, I felt that I had by and by fizzled my better half Siddharth (Roy Kapur) as his organization had created it and it was our first film post marriage. At first, I didn't acknowledge it, I kept saying...kal accumulations accha ho jayega. At that point 'Shaadi Ke Side Effects' and 'Bobby Jasoos' taken after. Individuals let me know that the crowd needed to see a greater amount of me in ladies driven movies, however 'Bobby Jasoos' was that.
Did this stage urge you to reexamine your decisions?
Before 'Hamari Adhuri Kahaani' ('HAK'), (Mahesh) Bhatt saab called me and said, 'I have a few worries that your movies haven't worked post marriage'. I let him know there is nothing I can do about that, and I have no doubts on the off chance that he cast another person. Unexpectedly, I had gone to address him about leaving the film due to my medical problems, and when he communicated his worry, I thought it was universe's method for saying this isn't working out. That was an intense day for me, as I got back home and quit Sujoy's film, as well. I told Bhatt saab, 'I don't lament being hitched, and I don't know why the movies haven't worked. To me, it is not on account of I am a hitched lady, but rather in light of the fact that the movies fizzled. On the off chance that that is the recognition, I don't need you to convey that things.' I am glad to the point that he was glaringly genuine. It made me doubt if there was some truth to this myth of wedded on-screen characters in Bollywood. When I checked out me, I saw that Kareena (Kapoor Khan) had quite recently conveyed a hit in a commonly business film. Aishwarya (Rai Bachchan) had likewise been marked on for 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', so this couldn't be a measure. Some of the time you feel that it doesn't make a difference the amount you have accomplished, one disappointment and you are starting over from the beginning.
In any case, you felt free to did 'HAK'...
Bhatt saab let me know that he had composed the script for me and he wouldn't do the film with any other person. He likewise let me know, 'Keep the script. Indeed, even at 50 in the event that you need, you can get some executive to make this'. In any case, he had another worry — he needed me to get in shape. I said I couldn't guarantee that as I was experiencing a medical problem. I am somebody who appreciates practicing and eating right, yet my body had changed. For three-and-a-half years I was being sedated for a condition which had disturbed my framework totally. When I went off the pharmaceutical, it resembled a boomerang. I let him know that I would leave his office with as much regard, however I couldn't take the weight of him needing his driving woman to look lighter. I was certain that I wouldn't go under the blade, or do liposuction. In the wake of having accomplished so much, you are in the long run judged on the premise of your body. What's more, poor assemblage of mine...how much judgment and feedback it has experienced. What's more, I am not talking in regard to my discussion with Bhatt saab, yet the general impression of individuals. I had achieved a phase where I said that I would prefer not to be judged any longer, so on the off chance that it implies not doing a part, it is alright. I feel alluring, yet in the event that there is a sure standard of attractive quality I don't fit into, I can't help it. "HAK" got deferred because of Emraan Hashmi's child's wellbeing and I wound up doing the film. I will dependably welcome that Bhatt saab was mercilessly fair with me — that is Mahesh Bhatt for you. Indeed, even today, I can't stand to see 'Bobby Jasoos', as I was at my least point. It helps me to remember a period in my life when I was not liking myself. What's more, today, dislike my circumstance has changed, my disposition has. I'm back to tolerating and adoring myself.

So after 'HAK', you chose to take a break...
I enjoyed a reprieve to think in the event that I needed to keep doing what I was doing. Since I was 11, I just needed to act, and abruptly I felt that I was losing my fantasy. I was uncertain about the one energy I lived for. On the most recent day of "HAK" shoot (and nobody knows this) I told my family that I was not going to return to work for some time. I began declining offers. Siddharth was befuddled, and my family persistently listened to me. They let me vent, cry and even endured the worst part of it. I would record my contemplations, some of the time shred it to pieces, as well. I was simply cleansing all the tension and outrage (there was a considerable measure of it) out of my framework, it was troublesome. I wasn't persuaded about the view of wedded on-screen characters in our industry, however I figure, Bhatt saab really vocalized it for me. It resembles your most noticeably bad dread working out. I experienced a procedure of removing every one of these musings out of my framework. Gradually, I understood my esteem as an individual, lady and performer. When you dispose of all the abundance things, you start to acknowledge yourself once more. I am as yet reeling under the impact of solution that has destroyed my framework. My body has changed drastically.
Amid 'The Dirty Picture', it was a disclosure to see everybody acclaim you for putting on weight and displaying it with such forsake for a part. At that point rapidly individuals began body-disgracing and reprimanding you for a similar weight...
Truth is stranger than fiction! On the off chance that you put on weight for a part, everybody says... 'Arre wah, what a performing artist!' Then they bring you down for a similar thing. After 'The Dirty Picture', I believed that if there were any issues that I had with my body and weight...I had released myself. Be that as it may, then, the universe came thumping at my entryway and said, 'Hi, I am still here and there are things about yourself that regardless you have to acknowledge'. It is difficult to be told by everybody... 'OMG! You have shed pounds, or you have put on weight, why not work out'. The remark is, all things considered, constantly about weight reduction or pick up. I feel it's not your concern. Presently, it doesn't trouble me, I am resting easy and upbeat in my space. I have returned to work with a retaliation. I needed to experience this to comprehend what my energy intends to me. Thinking back, I can't envision that I had achieved a phase where I thought I would surrender it all. These cycles happen and I am cheerful conceding that I have experienced it and I have turned out more grounded and more joyful. I was intended to experience it to acknowledge a greater amount of myself.
