Vidya Balan Says My Body, My House, My Country, My Rules In Begum Jaan

She might not be a conventional hour-glass figure B-Town actress, but when she sets her foot on a film, the result is something like this:



Well yes, meet Vidya Balan aka Begum Jaan. That’s the first look of the film where Vidya Balan appears as the fearless madam of a brothel with the tagline: My Body, My House, My Country, My Rules.

The first look is surely promising where the intensity in Vidya’s eyes says it all.  Begum Jaan is directed by Srijit Mukherji and is an adaptation of the critically acclaimed Rajkahini.

Known for sinking deep into the skin of the characters that she plays, Vidya will mostly nail this one as well.

During an exclusive interview with SpotboyE.com, Vidya Balan spoke about her role in Begum Jaan and said, “Begum Jaan is set in partition times and I’m playing a procurer or the madam of a brothel, and it’s a role that I wanted to play since long. It required me to be very violent and abusive, and I didn’t know it was in me, but it was.”

The film has an ensemble cast starring Naseeruddin Shah, Ila Arun, Gauahar Khan, Pallavi Sharda, Rajit Kapoor, Ashish Vidyarthi, Vivek Mushran, Chunky Pandey, Poonam Singh Rajput, Ridheema Tiwari, Flora Saini, Priyanka Setia, Mishti Chakraborty, Sumit Nijhawan, Pitobash and Rajesh Sharma.

Vidya plays the role of a brothel’s madam in the film.
