Actress Vidya Balan is one of the lucky actresses of Bollywood. After the success of her first movie Parineeta the actress is getting many offers from Bollywood. Renowned filmmaker Rituparno Ghosh has decided to cast Vidya in his forthcoming movie Sahib Biwi Aur Ghulam. The film will be produced by Pritish Nandy Communications. Vidya will be playing Jaba, a role played by the veteran actress Waheeda Rehman. This remake of an old classic also stars Priyanka Chopra and Salman Khan in lead roles. According to Ghosh he had seen Vidya's work in Parineeta and like her innocent face, which compelled him to offer her the same role.

While Vidya who also wants to be a part of that film says, "I am keen on working with Ritu da who has approached me. He is one of the finest filmmaker in India, who portrays the sensibility of woman on screen exquisitely. We are working out the dates and I am yet to read the final script. If everything works out then I shall be doing the film."
