Women-centric films reflect changing society: Vidya Balan

vidya balan 200x295 Bollywood star Vidya Balan Wednesday said women-centric films reflected the truth that women were taking centre-stage in various walks of life.

“I think women are taking centre-stage in various walks of life all around the country and cinema is solely a mirrored image of that. I’m happy to be a part of the film that may be celebrating the brand new role of women,” she told reporters here.

Vidya Balan, who has won accolades for her roles in ‘The Dirty Picture’ and ‘Kahaani’, was here to receive the Prabha Khaitan Puraskar 2012 from the Calcutta Chamber of Commerce.

She said she desired to work in Bengali films too. “Satyajit Ray is my favourite Bengali director. I’ll like to work in a Bengali film. But till now, I HAVE NEVER received any offer. But I'VE taken videos of Bengali films like ‘Antaheen’ and ‘Moner Manush’.” – IANS
