Vidya Balan is one such actress who made it big in Bollywood without any godfathers or a background. Ever since her debut in 2005 with Parineeta, Vidya never looked back.
But she also had flops in her kitty later in her career which had partially affected her already set image. Moreover, the actress is also seen in South films with her sheer hard work and perseverance.
The recent interview made Vidya reveal about one of her bitter experiences faced in the South Film Industry. She stated that there were a lot of rejections down South. She added, “I have been replaced in a lot of Malayalam films. I was also thrown out of a Tamil film after my role has been confirmed. My parents used to come with me because they were so worried about me. I had really begun to fade. We went to the producer’s office. The producer showed us the scenes from the film and said, ‘Just look at her, does she look like a heroine? The cruel attitude left us in shock and the producer also said that he was never really interested in taking me and blamed the director.”
The frequent rejection on her face made Vidya upset and had dealing issues. “I felt ugly…I felt like sh*t for months and I don’t think I looked at myself in the mirror. I didn’t like what I saw because I thought I was ugly…For the longest time, I did not forgive that man, but today, thanks to that I realized that I have to love and accept myself the way I am.”
Vidya also opened up on another appalling experience. The actress, who committed into doing a Tamil film, had to leave it midway as she felt uncomfortable with the kind of humour that was in the film. “I left the film and they sent me a legal notice,” she said.
After all these, the rejection has hurt her confidence and inflicted her psychological well-being, going beyond emotional pain, Nevertheless, this highly talented actress crossed all those bitter barriers and came back with a bang with her new hit release Mission Mangal.
