The sultry Vidya Balan is clearing gaining an advantage as the most sought after actress in Bollywood. She has been getting scripts that have been written for her like Ishqiya, No One Killed Jessica and The Dirty Picture and looks like the next one ‘Satte Pe Satta’ will also fall on her lap. Director Soham Shah initially wanted to take Madhuri Dixit in the role that Hema Malini had immortalized in the original. But since the lead actor of the film Sanjay Dutt was not too happy with Madhuri Dixit (they had a relationship in the 90s) in the film, they penciled in for Aishwarya Rai. But with Ash being pregnant, Soham and his team have decided to take Vidya Balan onboard.
A source says, “They need an Indian face for the role and hence Vidya is an obvious choice. However, Vidya is busy till January next year. While Soham awaits to hear from Vidya, the ball is in the actress’s court.”
