Vidya Balan and Sujoy Ghosh made the critically acclaimed Kahaani before their very public fallout, after Vidya opted out of Sujoy’s ambitious film Durga Rani Singh due to health concerns. After Hrs has learned that the filmmaker and the actress have now patched up and will be working together again. The film? Durga Rani Singh!
A source close to the actress shares, “Vidya and Sujoy recently met and the two sorted out their differences. Sujoy then offered Durga Rani to her again, and she agreed to do the biopic. It wasn’t too difficult a decision for Vids because she’d already okayed the script before opting out citing health reasons. Now she’s completely fine and is looking forward to teaming up with her Kahaani director.”
How did it fall in place? Our khabroo tells us, “Vidya and Sujoy recently bumped into each other at a coffee shop. She walked up to him, tapped him on the shoulder and said, 'Hi, remember me? I’m Vidya Balan.' Sujoy quickly responded with a smile, 'So, are you the pregnant woman who was looking for her husband in that film?' Both of them burst out laughing. Later, they settled down for a friendly chat and reminisced about their Kahaani days. They even talked about making Durga Rani.”
After Vidya's exit from the film, Sujoy approached many established actresses but nothing worked out. Amidst all this, one question rises. Didn’t Aishwarya Rai Bachchan confirm being a part of the film? What happens now?
