Vidya Balan To Play Lead In Film On MMS Scandal
December 22nd, 2010 - 7:39 pm ICT by Sampurn Wire
Bollywood actress Vidya Balan is soon becoming the preferred face for films which boast of sexual content and skin show. After reports that she has been chosen to portray the real life character of South Indian siren Silk Smitha in an upcoming Bollywood project, Vidya Balan has also been roped in by Balaji Telefilms for their upcoming film Ragini MMS, a film based on the MMS video clip that was shot at a school in New Delhi.
It was just a few days ago that the media was abuzz with reports of Kangana Ranaut walking out of the movie after she developed cold feet on performing bold scenes and shedding to the bare minimum onscreen. Ekta Kapoor had confirmed reports of Kangana Ranaut leaving her project because she was uneasy about the explicit content that was part of Ragini MMS. Kangana Ranaut was the initial choice of Balaji Telefilms because Ekta Kapoor has already delivered a hit with the actress in her 2010 release Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai.
With Kangana leaving the project, Ekta Kapoor was on the lookout for a new leading lady for Ragini MMS. And though representatives from Balaji Telefilms are reluctant to make any comments about Vidya Balan agreeing to play the role that was disowned by Kangana Ranaut, the media is abuzz with reports of the femme fatale of Bollywood saying yes to Ekta Kapoor.
