Vidya Balan is at her glamorous, boldest and sultry best in her upcoming film 'The Dirty Picture', touted to be inspired from southern sex symbol Silk Smitha. Ekta Kapoor, the producer of the film, says she is confident about the outcome of the film."I would be surprised if I don't get unbelievable critical acclaim for 'The Dirty Picture' and a national award for Vidya Balan," said Ekta Kapoor. The story of Silk Smitha - her journey from poor village girl to soft porn star, thanks to the bold and semi-nude roles she had done. Added to it her gradual fall with financial crisis and personal problems. Though Vidya Balan was appreciated by many for the make-over she has gone to this film, there were few who say Vidya is not a match to Silk Smitha.
"Vidya looks sexy, but she is nothing like Silk. Vidya lacks the oomph and sensuality of Silk. Silk was dusky, with over 5 feet 7 inches tall; her eyes were big and when she did those sexy movements of licking her thick luscious lips and rolling her eyes up in a dreamy way, she gave men something to think about. In Vidya's case, she appears to be 5 feet 2 inches tall with small eyes. Silk managed to fill the screen with her broad shoulders and long legs. Vidya is tiny and her torso doesn't quite add up,'' opined an actor, who has done films with Silk Smitha. Let's wait till the release of the film, to get a clear picture of whether Vidya has done justice to the role of Silk Smitha!
