Vidya at a loose end

Vidya Balan's costumes in Ishqiya are being altered to fit her changed size; she has lost 10 kilos

Last month, we told you about Vidya Balan's drastic weight loss. While Vidya is more than happy after losing 10 kilos, the producers of Ishqiya, Vishal Bharadwaj and Manasi Maroo have a new problem on hand. They have to alter Vidya's costumes as they no longer fit the actress. Confirming this, Abhishek Chaubey, the director said, "Yes we were compelled to alter Vidya's outfits. But the overall effect is that she is looking gorgeous in the film."

A source said, "There is a lot of patchwork left for which Vidya has to again wear the outfits she wore during the film's shoot. But the clothes have become quite loose for Vidya now."

While Vidya remained unavailable for comment, Maroo did not deny the story. "For the scenes that are yet to be canned, we will have to take fresh measurements. I can't quantify Vidya's weight loss but I must say she has lost a substantial amount of weight," said Maroo.

In Ishqiya, Vidya plays a complex character and fools the uncle-nephew jodi played by Naseeruddin Shah and Arshad Warsi respectively. They will be seen speaking the U.P. dialect.
