😉😊 Vidya Balan's obvious most career-defining performance is the DIRTY PICTURE. She has received the most recognition (critically and commercially). But now time has gone by and we all wonder, can she top the DIRTY PICTURE? I know this is uncertain right now and we cannot predict with a crystal ball. Vidya even said she needs a break! However, long breaks can hurt your career if you don't cash in on the moment! 😛 She is not the one to sign 5 films in one year like other starlets! 😆 However, I want to see Vidya more and more. I want to see if she can come out with another winning performance. Sure, she just has the recently released Kahaani. Kahaani can't top the DIRTY PICTURE and will not be that big of a commercial success. Will Vidya be able to surprise us again? Or will we have to wait at least another couple of years before she has this kind of success again?!

Please share your thoughts...👏.

She is really talented so she will def give us better performances in the future...or like you put it top the dirty picture performance. But in terms of hits...I don't think Kahani is gonna be a blockbuster like TDP since that movie had skin show, hit songs, and good word of mouth ect... I can't wait to watch Kahani when it comes out on DVD. Am def a vidya fan now...and it took the dirty picture for me to see Vidya is not boring...she just picks really boring roles most of the times...

Beboholic! 🤗 How have you been? Vidya needs to star with a major A-lister right now. I want her to at least have one blockbuster under her belt even if it is a glam role. She needs to balance commercial and meaningful cinema. Then, I hope she can have another impactful woman-oriented hit. Her track record is simply amazing: Paa, Ishqiya, No One Killed Jessica, The Dirty Picture, and Kahaani. The last five films were critically acclaimed and not one critic said she was bad. She has signed her next film with Emraan which is a comedy. So, that is a start. But, I want her to come with other heroes. I want her to do at least one film with a Khan or Hrithik Roshan! 😊

^ I agree she needs to be more versatile. But am not sure about her in a comedy role because she was really bad in Heyy baby and that was a commerical/comedy film. With her, I think if she doesn't have a strong role, she fails flat on her face...meaning if the script and her character is not strong. She wasn't really good in No one killed jessica...something lacked from her performance...Rajeev masand didn't like her perfomrance in NOKJ.

Anyone could have done that role in Heyy Baby. It was a bakwas film and I hated it with a passion! 😡😆 I don't think Vidya has been given a real opportunity to shine in a masala/comedy film. Look at Aish, she also did so many films where the contribution wasn't noticed in commercial cinema. Commercial films are not everyone's cup of tea. Vidya's forte is performance-driven roles. Perhaps, she is better off not wasting her time on crap movies. She could do a commercial film with a sensible director like Rajkumar Hirani again. I think she is capable of doing it and only time will tell! 😊

😲😆 OMG, well then I guess some liked it. But, Akshay has done so many lame-brain comedies for years. That, even this one doesn't make me realize his movies are getting any better by the day! 😛

^ Really. OMG am too excited to see it.

I agree erotic...Akshay has a lot of crappy movies. Why on earth are they making Housefull 2? That movie was horrible. Okay it was a good time pass...but nothing great to need a sequel.

Housefull 2 is being made for more skin show and Asin in a bikini, but she bores me. 🥱😆
