Anu Menon on Vidya Balan in 'Neeyat': We needed someone with gravitas

F

ilmmaker Anu Menon, who is collaborating with Vidya Balan for the second time -- on 'Neeyat' this time after 'Shakuntala Devi' -- said on Wednesday she needed someone with calibre and gravitas for the role. So, she approached Vidya for the lead.

Menon, along with Vidya, Ram Kapoor, Rahul Bose, Dipannita Sharma, Shashank Arora, Shahana Goswami, Neeraj Kabi and Amrita Puri, were interacting with the media during a press conference in Mumbai.

When asked about collaborating with Vidya Balan for the second time, Menon said Why? Because when we started writing the script and started figuring out this character, it really felt like a Vidya Balan role. I am not saying she is similar to Vidya, but we wanted someone of her calibre, gravitas; someone who can actually takes us on this journey -- the one you can trust.
