Vidya Balan finally reacts to rumours of having a secret daughter after viral video

Recently, Bollywood actress Vidya Balan was clicked at the airport and accompanying her was a girl who was tagged as her daughter by someone from the media and the video went viral in no time.

The actress has now finally broken her silence. Turns out, she was Ira, Balan’s sister’s daughter, her niece. Vidya Balan said, "That is my sister’s daughter Ira! She has twins: a boy Ruhaan and Ira."

Vidya Balan was last seen in the mystery drama Neeyat. In an exclusive interview with Firstpost, talking about the film, the actress said, “My character, Mira Rao doesn’t believe in any form of validation from anyone and she’s kind of like me. She’s also very curious and inquisitive as a person and that’s why she does the job that she does, which is why I’m also an actor because I’m also very curious and inquisitive. As for the preparation, Anu and I did a lot of discussions over soup during the second lockdown just reading the script because I wanted to understand how she was seeing Mira Rao.”

She added, “This character was very well etched-out on paper but you always want to know from your director the character graph, the progression. I just spent a lot of time talking to her.”

On taking inspiration from other detective movies

Not really because where do we have women detectives? It’s always easier when there are some real-life references but in this case, there weren’t any. That’s where the repeated conversations with Anu helped me give clarity; I don’t think I have used any references.
