I'm glad more people are wearing sari: Vidya Balan

Posted: 05 Jun 2012 09:41 AM PDT




Has 'The Dirty Picture' actress inspired women to take up the Indian traditional wear?

Vidya Balan is basking under the glory of her films and is enjoying every bit of it. The actress was recently chosen as the brand ambassador of The Melbourne Film Festival and more recently was felicitated by Namaste America, an Indo-American Association for Art and Culture.

There is still some time before she starts her next film Ghanchakkar. "It will be my first comedy film and so I'm very nervous about it", says Vidya. However for the uninitiated, Vidya Balan had started her acting career with a comedy show Hum Paanch that turned out to be a big hit. Ghanchakkar reunites Vidya Balan with her Dirty Picture costar Emraan Hashmi. "Ghanchakkar will release next year since we haven't started work on it yet. We are hoping to start shooting in August".

Meanwhile one thing that has almost become synonymous with Vidya Balan is sari. Ask her about her sari fascination and she says, "I love wearing the sari. I can sleep in a sari. I can live in a sari". Does she believe she has inspired women to take up the Indian traditional wear? "I don't know if I have inspired women but I'm glad more people are wearing sari", she smiles.

Though the shy Tiger Shroff is reluctant to talk about it, fact is Aamir Khan has been taking the young wannabe debutant's help in re-building his physique for his part in Dhoom 3.

Says a source very close to the project, "Since Aamir plays a gym instructor in Dhoom 3 it isn't just a great physique that he needs to work on. He also needs to understand various physical-training technique in the gym. Aditya Chopra and Aamir discussed the role. They both came to the conclusion that the character needs to look convincing in body and technique. Aamir needed a particular kind of physique to look convincing as a physical trainer. He also needed to learn the art and technique of physical training in the gym. This is where Aamir without hesitation sought the help of Tiger."

Tiger and Aamir have been bonding for two years now. In fact Aamir has told Tiger's father Jackie Shroff that he is keen on producing the boy's launch film.

When Aamir asked for Tiger's help in getting familiar with gym protocol, Tiger was initially very embarrassed. But soon he agreed. The superstar and the star-son have so far had one long training session. More are to follow as soon Aamir gets some breathing space from his television show.

Says Tiger with self-effacing candour, "Yes, he was kind enough to invite me for a workout with him. But what could I possibly offer Aamir Sir?"

When pressed further for details on the first of their proposed workout sessions Tiger revealed, "We did some functional and core-related workouts. They were basically exercises that engage and recruit your abdominal muscles."

Tiger also adds that Aamir has a trainer over from the US. "Aamir Sir has a trainer that's come down from the States to get him to look a particular way for his role Dhoom 3. As for me I'm just happy to be called whenever he asks me."
