When Vidya Balan was RESTRICTED from doing make up!

It's natural for our Bollywood actors to be very particular about their make up and beauty. It would surely be a nightmare, especially for the actresses if they ever had to step out in public without carrying any make up. Recently, Vidya Balan had to face a similar instance.

Vidya who is prepping for the release of Srijit Mukeerji's 'Begum Jaan' was instructed to not to do any make up, eye threading or waxing while shooting for the film. The actress will be seen playing an intense role in the film so Srijit wanted to give a natural appearance to Vidya's character. He had also advised her to put on some weight for the role.

A report in a popular tabloid quoted Srijit stating, "I wanted Vidya to gain a bit of weight, and I wanted her baddie avatar to comeback, which is something we've not seen post 'Dirty Picture' and 'Ishqiya'. I also wanted her to have a tan look to suit for the role." (sic)

He also informed that the weather conditions were perfect for Vidya's look. He says, "The sun was strong. We were shooting under such scorching and extreme weather conditions that tanning happened naturally. I ensured most of the women didn't have any make up on, so that we could take it to a realistic zone. I also forbade Vidya and most other actors from waxing or threading eye brows, so you have that wild and rugged role. It's a very earthy realistic kind of space they've worked in". (sic)

This role will portray's Vidya's one such bold avatars as seen in her earlier films. The film also stars Naseeruddin Shah and will hit the silver screens on April, 14.
