Vidya Balan (pronounced [ʋɪd̪jaː baːlən]; born 1 January 1978) is an Indian actress. She has established a successful career in Bollywood and is the recipient of several awards, including a National Film Award, five Filmfare Awards, and five Screen Awards, and was awarded the Padma Shri by theGovernment of India in 2014. She is known for portraying strong female protagonists and has been acknowledged in the media for pioneering a change in the concept of a Hindi film heroine.
Vidya aspired to a career in film from a young age, and had her first acting role in the 1995 sitcom Hum Paanch. She pursued a master's degree insociology from the University of Mumbai and simultaneously made several unsuccessful attempts to start a career in film. She subsequently featured in various television commercials and music videos, and in 2003 made her feature film debut as the protagonist of the independent Bengali dramaBhalo Theko. In 2005 Vidya garnered praise for her first Hindi film, the drama Parineeta, and followed it with a leading role in the highly successful 2006 comedy film Lage Raho Munna Bhai.
This initial success was followed by roles in the romantic comedies Heyy Babyy (2007) and Kismat Konnection (2008) which met with negative reviews. The year 2009 marked the beginning of the most successful period in Vidya's career as she portrayed five consecutive roles to wide critical acclaim in the 2009 drama Paa, the 2010 black comedy Ishqiya, the 2011 semi-biographical thriller No One Killed Jessica, the 2011 biopic The Dirty Picture, and the 2012 thriller Kahaani. These roles established her as a leading actress of Hindi cinema and earned her the tag of a "female hero".
In addition to acting in films, Vidya promotes humanitarian causes and supports the empowerment of women. She initially drew criticism for her fluctuating weight and "questionable" dress sense, but was later credited in the media for "not morphing herself to fit into any conventional slot".[1] She is married to the film producer Siddharth Roy Kapur.

EARLY LIFE AND BACKGROUND

Vidya Balan was born on 1 January 1978 in Poothamkurussy, Puthur,[2][3] a town in the Palakkad District of Kerala, to P. R. Balan, currently the Executive Vice-President of Digicable,[4] and Saraswathy Balan, a homemaker.[5][6] According to Vidya, they speak a mix of Malayalam and Tamil at home; she is also well versed in Hindi, Marathi, English and Bengali.[7]Her elder sister, Priya Balan, works in the field of advertising.[5] The actress Priyamani is her second cousin.[8][9]
Vidya grew up in the suburban neighbourhood of Chembur, Mumbai and was schooled at St. Anthony Girls' High School.[10][11] From a young age she aspired to a career in film and was inspired by the work of actors Shabana Azmi andMadhuri Dixit.[12][13] At the age of sixteen, she starred in the first season of Ekta Kapoor's sitcom Hum Paanch as Radhika, a bespectacled teenager.[14][15] Following the success of the show, Vidya refused director Anurag Basu's offer to star in a television soap opera, as she wanted to concentrate on a film career.[16] Her parents were supportive of the decision but encouraged her to complete her education first,[12] so she attended St. Xavier's College to pursue a bachelor's degree in sociology and later earned a master's degree from the University of Mumbai.[17][18]

CAREER

Struggle and film debut (2000–04)

While pursuing her master's degree, Vidya was cast as the female lead in the Malayalam film Chakram, oppositeMohanlal and was subsequently signed on for twelve other Malayalam language films.[12] However, due to production difficulties, Chakram was shelved.[19] The postponement of a film starring Mohanlal was an unheard of occurrence in Malayalam cinema and film producers blamed her for bringing "bad luck" to the project; labelled her as a "jinx" and replaced her in all the films that she had been contracted for.[12] She then shifted focus to Tamil cinema. In 2001, she was cast as the female lead in N. Linguswamy's Run (2002). However, after completing the first shooting schedule of the film, she was unceremoniously dropped and replaced by Meera Jasmine.[20] She was signed up under false pretences for asex comedy, a genre she was then uncomfortable with, and thus decided to leave the project.[12] Thereafter, she signed on for a third Tamil film, Manasellam (2003), but was replaced by Trisha Krishnan as the director was dissatisfied with her work.[21] Kalari Vikraman, another Malayalam film that she completed work for in 2003, failed to get a theatrical release.[22]
After failing to start a film career, Vidya appeared in approximately sixty television commercials and in music videos forEuphoria and Shubha Mudgal; a majority of these were directed by Pradeep Sarkar.[16][23] In 2003, she was signed on byGoutam Halder for his independent Bengali drama Bhalo Theko; her first film release.[24] Her portrayal of Anandi, a young woman reminiscing about her past, won her an Anandalok Purashkar for Best Actress.[25]

Breakthrough (2005–08)

In 2005 Vidya made her Hindi film debut with Pradeep Sarkar's musical drama Parineeta. Before being cast for the film, she had to undergo extensive auditions for a period of six months.[19][26] The film, an adaptation of Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's novel of the same name, narrated the love story of an idealist Lalita (Vidya) and an egoist Shekhar (Saif Ali Khan), the son of a capitalist businessman.[27] Her performance in the film was praised by critics;[15] Derek Elley fromVariety wrote, " An acting revelation is Tamil newcomer Balan, whose devoted but dignified Lalita is the picture's heart and soul."[28] Parineeta fetched her a Best Female Debut award and a nomination for Best Actress at the annual Filmfare Awards ceremony.[29] The following year, Vidya appeared opposite Sanjay Dutt in Rajkumar Hirani's comedy film Lage Raho Munna Bhai. She portrayed the role of Jhanvi, a radio jockey and the love interest of the protagonist Munna Bhai. To prepare for her role, she met with a couple of radio jockeys and watched them at work.[30] Her performance was critically well received,[31] and the film emerged as a blockbuster with earnings of INR1.19 billion (US$19 million).[32]
In 2007 Vidya featured in a supporting role in Mani Ratnam's semi-biographical drama Guru as a woman suffering frommultiple sclerosis. The film, which starred Mithun Chakraborty, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and R. Madhavan in leading roles, performed well at the box office.[33] However, film critics Khalid Mohamed and Raja Sen noted that her "talent was wasted" in a "minuscule role".[34][35] Her next release was Nikhil Advani's Salaam-e-Ishq: A Tribute To Love, a romantic comedy featuring an ensemble cast, in which she was paired opposite John Abraham. The film, which narrated six individual love stories, saw Vidya play the role of a television reporter, Tehzeeb Hussain, suffering from amemory loss condition. The film, which was a critical and commercial failure,[33] generated positive reviews for Vidya. Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com wrote, "Vidya's transformation from a self-assured working woman to a helpless, vulnerable person is superb."[36]

Vidya then took a supporting role in Vidhu Vinod Chopra's suspense thrillerEklavya: The Royal Guard, alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Boman Irani, Sharmila Tagore, Saif Ali Khan, and Sanjay Dutt. The film, which flopped commercially, met with positive critical reviews and was selected as India's official entry to the Oscars for the 80th Academy Awards.[37] She was later cast as Isha Sahni, a single mother, in Sajid Khan's Heyy Babyy, alongside co-stars Akshay Kumar,Ritesh Deshmukh, and Fardeen Khan. The comedy film was a box-office success,[33] but garnered negative reviews from critics, as did Vidya's performance; CNN-IBN's Rajeev Masand criticised her wardrobe and make-up, and considered her the "sore thumb" of the film.[38][39]
Vidya's fifth and final film of 2007 was Priyadarshan's psychological thriller Bhool Bhulaiyaa, a remake of the Malayalam film Manichitrathazhu (1993). Vidya featured as Avani Chaturvedi (a character played by Shobana in the Malayalam original), a woman suffering from dissociative identity disorder.[40] Co-starringShiney Ahuja, Akshay Kumar, and Ameesha Patel, Bhool Bhulaiyaa was a commercial success with a worldwide revenue of over INR830 million (US$13 million).[33] Reviewers, while being generally negative of the film, were appreciative of Vidya's performance. Writing for Hindustan Times, Khalid Mohamed described her as "bankably likeable" and Bollywood Hungama's Taran Adarsh labelled her as "splendid".[41][42] The role earned Vidya a second Filmfare nomination in the Best Actress category.[29]
In 2008's social film Halla Bol, Vidya played a supporting role alongside Ajay Devgn and Pankaj Kapur. The film was based on the life of activist Safdar Hashmi, who was killed by political rivals while performing on a street play (by the name of Halla Bol) in 1989.[43] The film was a critical failure.[44] Later that year, she co-starred with Shahid Kapoor in Aziz Mirza's romantic comedy Kismat Konnection. A commercial failure,[45] the film and her performance generated a negative response; critic Sonia Chopra commented, "[Balan] is made to look downright drab. The haircut is unflattering, the make-up too plain, the clothes usually in off-white or brown. Plus the character is repetitive and reminds us of the one she played in Lage Raho Munnabhai."[46]

Widespread success (2009–12)

In 2009 Vidya played the role of an unwed gynaecologist struggling with her 12-year-old son's progeria syndrome, in theR. Balki-directed dramedy Paa. Amitabh Bachchan played the role of Vidya's son and Abhishek Bachchan played the titular character. A critical and commercial success, the film has been described as a major turning point in her career.[47][48] Sukanya Verma compared her acting style to that of Dimple Kapadia and noted, "Balan is poignant yet restrained and projects an impressive figure of grace and integrity";[49] Nikhat Kazmi from The Times of India further argued that Vidya was successful in lending a "rare dignity to the image of the Bollywood mom."[50] Her portrayal garnered her several awards, including a Filmfare Award for Best Actress and a Screen Award for Best Actress.[29]
Vidya followed the success of Paa with the Vishal Bhardwaj-produced Ishqiya (2010), a black comedy directed by debutant Abhishek Chaubey; co-starring Naseeruddin Shah, Arshad Warsi, and Salman Shahid. Vidya's role was that of Krishna Verma, a sexually manipulative woman. Vidya described her character as "an epitome of grey" and a departure from the conventional portrayal of women in cinema.[51] In preparation for her part, she undertook professional training to speak in the local Uttar Pradesh-dialect.[52] The feature as well as her performance received critical acclaim; Anupama Chopra of NDTV stated, "Vidya Balan's smoldering looks scorch the screen even as her eyes hint at tragedy. She proves that she is miles ahead of the cookie cutter Barbie dolls that clutter Bollywood and that sensuality has very little to do with showing skin."[53] Her work in the film earned Vidya a Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress, a second consecutive Best Actress award at Screen and a nomination for Best Actress at Filmfare.[54]

Raj Kumar Gupta's semi-biographical thriller No One Killed Jessica with Rani Mukerji was Vidya's first release of 2011. The film, based on the Jessica Lalmurder case, saw her portray the real-life character of Sabrina Lal, Jessica's reticent sister. While preparing for the role, Vidya did not meet Lal on the insistence of Gupta as "the Sabrina [...] today is different from the Sabrina a decade ago, [when] the story begins".[55] No One Killed Jessica met with contrasting reviews from critics, but Vidya's performance was particularly praised.The Hindu remarked on Vidya's ability to be "in sublime control over her emotions"[56] and Savera Someshwar of Rediff.com added that "her hesitant body language, her faith, her helplessness, her rage, her sorrow and her gratitude all come across beautifully".[57] The film had earnings of INR490 million(US$7.7 million) and was noted for being a commercial success despite the absence of a male lead.[58] Vidya earned another Filmfare nomination in the Best Actress category for the film.[59] In March 2011, a retrospective of Vidya's films was held in Australia, as part of the film festival Bollywood & Beyond.[60] That same year, Vidya featured in a guest appearance in Santosh Sivan's Malayalam language fantasy film Urumi.[61]
Vidya's next appearance was in Ekta Kapoor's production The Dirty Picture, a biopic based on the life and death of the controversial Indian actress Silk Smitha.[62] Vidya was cast as Silk, who was—in Vidya's words—"known for her brazenness and in-your-face sexuality."[63] She described the role as the "boldest" she had ever played, one that "required a lot of mental preparation," and to look the part, she gained 12 kilograms (26 lb).[64] The film opened to major critical acclaim, and Vidya received unanimous praise for her portrayal which several reviewers regarded as her best performance to date.[65][66][67] Khalid Mohamed observed, "She's extraordinary: gutsy, consistently in character and unafraid of exposing her darker side. Here's the kind of complex performance which you haven't evidenced in years and years."[68] Her director Milan Luthria described her as the contemporary claimant of the "sex-symbol" title, and compared her "voluptuousness" to the likes of yesteryear actresses Sridevi and Vyjayanthimala.[69] The film was eventually declared a blockbuster, earning INR1.14 billion (US$18 million) worldwide.[32] Vidya won a second Filmfare Award, a third consecutive Screen Award, and a National Film Award for Best Actress.[54][70]
For her next feature film, Vidya starred as Vidya Bagchi, a pregnant woman in search of her missing husband in Sujoy Ghosh's Kahaani (2012). The thriller, set in the city of Kolkata during the Durga Puja festivities, met with wide critical acclaim. To lend authenticity to her part, Vidya met several pregnant women and learnt about their lifestyle.[71] She generated public and media attention by wearing a fake baby bump during the film's promotional activities.[72][73] Vidya received further appreciation for her performance in Kahaani. Subhash K. Jha praised Vidya's portrayal of "grace under pressure" as "measured and skilled"; Pratim D. Gupta of The Telegraph added that she "gets into the physicality of a pregnant woman with unfailing mastery".[74][75] Kahaani emerged as a major commercial success both at the domestic and international box office, with revenues of over INR1.04 billion (US$16 million).[76] Vidya won a fourth consecutive Best Actress Award at Screen and a third Best Actress Award at Filmfare.[77][78]

After completing the duties of a jury member at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival, Vidya starred opposite Emraan Hashmi as a loud and boisterous Punjabi woman inGhanchakkar, a comic-thriller from director Raj Kumar Gupta.[79][80] Critics were unenthusiastic about the film and it earned little at the box office.[81] Vidya then provided the voice of Draupadi for Mahabharat, a 3D animation film based on the Indian epic of the same name.[82] The romantic comedy Shaadi Ke Side Effects was Vidya's first film release of 2014. Directed by Saket Chaudhary and co-starring Farhan Akhtar, the film tells the story of a married couple who face a series of comic events after the birth of their first child. Vidya's role was Trisha Mallik, a "regular working woman in an urban, two income household", a character for which she did not undergo much preparation.[83]Critics found the film to be a "bit overstretched", but praised both Akhtar and Vidya's performances.[84] Rachit Gupta of Filmfare thought that Vidya's character offered her a "limited character stretch", but wrote that she "excels and floors both comedy and drama with ease."[85]
Also in 2014, Vidya featured as the host of No More Kamzor, a special television program on women empowerment.[86]Her second film release that year was the comedy-drama Bobby Jasoos in which she played the eponymous role of aHyderabadi woman who aspires to be a detective. Vidya was drawn to the idea of playing a female detective, and identified with the character's struggle to "do something unusual" in life.[87] The role required her to sport twelve elaborate disguises, and she trained with a language coach to adopt a Hyderabadi accent.[88] Shubha Shetty-Saha of Mid Dayreviewed that Vidya "bites into this role with passion and lives it like her own", adding, "you wonder if any actress could have been able to manage this outwardly simple but complex role with such competence".[89]
As of December 2014, Vidya is filming opposite Emraan Hashmi and Rajkummar Rao for Hamari Adhuri Kahani, a romance from director Mohit Suri, in which she plays a florist.[90]

PERSONAL LIFE AND OFF-SCREEN WORK

The mass media has often speculated about a romantic relationship between Vidya and her co-actors, but she has strongly denied these reports.[91][92] In 2009, Vidya was involved in a controversy when she mentioned a previous relationship in which "caustic remarks" were made at her due to her weight. She said, "If someone who matters to you takes you down, it can break you. That someone whose approval mattered to me started to constantly find faults with me. At that point of time, it was important to walk away from that relationship."[93] Though she refused to name the person, tabloid reports suggested that she was referring to Shahid Kapoor (her co-star in Kismat Konnection).[94] Kapoor, however, denied the allegations.[95] During an interview in May 2012, Vidya announced that she was dating Siddharth Roy Kapur, the CEO of UTV Motion Pictures.[96] On 14 December 2012, the couple were married in a private ceremony in Bandra, Mumbai.[97]
Vidya is trained in carnatic music and briefly studied the dance forms of Bharatnatyam and Kathak.[98] Regarding her religious affiliations, Vidya said, "I am a person with a lot of faith and I have conversations [with God] all the time but I am not so religious in the conventional, organised sense".[12] She practices vegetarianism and was listed as "India's hottest vegetarian" in polls conducted by PETA in 2011 and 2012.[99][100] Her weight fluctuations over the years have been the subject of substantial media coverage in India.[101][102][103]
Besides acting in film, Vidya promotes humanitarian causes and supports charitable institutions. In March 2011, she endorsed World Wildlife Fund's Earth Hour campaign in India.[104] She campaigned for the cause of nutrition in India for CINI (Child in Need Institute), a non-profit organisation based in Kolkata.[105] In September 2012, Vidya visited a village inMirzapur, Uttar Pradesh, where she participated in a campaign to promote children's education and the empowerment of women.[106] For her attempts to empower women, Vidya was awarded The Prabha Khaitan Puraskar 2012 by the Calcutta Chamber of Commerce; she was the youngest recipient of the award.[107] Vidya has also been appointed by theGovernment of India as their brand ambassador in the drive to improve the country's sanitary condition.[108] In August 2013, she served as the grand marshal of the India Day parade held in New York City.[109] In September that year, she launched a technology-based learning platform for underprivileged children in the Thanapur village of Uttar Pradesh.[110]

MEDIA IMAGE AND ARTISTRY

Following the success of Parineeta and Lage Raho Munna Bhai, Vidya's film roles were subject to wide critical analysis.[111] Vir Sanghvi noted that the films Heyy Babyy andKismat Konnection were "strange films [...] in which she tried to pretend to be what she is not — a Bollywood bimbette."[12] Vidya described that particular phase in her career as a "struggle to be someone else".[112] Due to the criticism that her film choices evoked, Vidya decided to choose roles that she "believed in" rather than choose by convention.[113] Members of the media have subsequently labelled her as "bold" and "daring" in her choices.[114][115]
Her starring roles in Heyy Babyy and Kismat Konnection also led to considerable attention in the media for her "questionable wardrobe". Several publications listed her as the "worst dressed actress" and her costume designers attributed her failure to carry off western clothes due to her weight and body structure.[116][117][118] She was later praised in the media for wearing saris at public events; designer Niharika Khan explained, "Vidya's beauty lies in her curves. She's comfortable in her voluptuousness, and therefore in a sari."[119] Vidya has since been identified as defying "an anglicised idea of sexuality" and embody the idea of "raw Indian sexuality".[113]
After portraying strong female protagonists in Paa, Ishqiya, No One Killed Jessica, The Dirty Picture and Kahaani, Vidya was credited in the media for pioneering a movement that breaks the stereotypical portrayal of heroines in Bollywood.[120][121] The major commercial success of the latter two earned her the title of a "female hero"[65][122] and Kalpana Nair of First Post noted that with these two films Vidya spearheaded a change in the roles that were offered to actresses over thirty.[123] Film critic Mayank Shekhar predicted, "Just a few smart male actors can completely change the face of a commercial, star-driven film industry. Looking at [...] Vidya Balan [...] it appears, that change could well originate from the leading lady instead."[124] India Today featured her in their listing of the "25 Power Women" and noted that "she has toppled the all dominating hero, reducing him to a supporting role in a male dominated film industry".[125]
Vidya occupied the top slot in Rediff.com's annual listing of "Bollywood's Best Actress" for two consecutive years (2010–11).[114][126] She also featured in the list for the years 2005, 2006, 2009, and 2012.[127][128][129][130] In 2010, she featured in Filmfare '​s listing of the "Women we love".[131] In 2012, the magazine Verve listed her as one of India's "Young Power Women" and wrote, "In a reel world peopled by size zero-toned bodies and pretty-as-a-picture heroines, Vidya comes across as completely real and natural – a woman who has followed her own instincts and dared to live her destiny by being her own person and not morphing herself to fit into any conventional slot."[1] In 2014, Vidya was awarded thePadma Shri, the fourth highest civilian award in India, for her contributions to the entertainment industry.[132]
