It’S So precious when people appreciate your work: Vidya Balan

NEW DELHI: Actress Vidya Balan has won many awards as well as love of the audience. She finds it really precious when people appreciate her work. After making her Bollywood debut with Parineeta in 2005, Vidya went on to play impactful roles in films such as Paa, Kahaani, The Dirty Picture, Tumhari Sulu and Mission Mangal. Asked if she feels it has become her responsibility to show strong women through her work, Vidya told IANS: “No, I don’t think it’s my responsibility at all, but I think it is something I veer towards because I get inspired by strong women stories. I have always been inspired by strong women in my life which is why I choose the kind of stories that I do. I’ll do anything that I’ll relate to instinctively.” She was last seen in the OTT-released film Shakuntala Devi.
