VIDYA walks into RANI'S territory, may do a YRF

Vidya walks into Rani's territory

After years of refusing to work with YRF, the actress may finally agree to a film for Aditya Chopra, thanks to mentor Pradeep Sarkar.

Vidya Balan and Yash Raj Film scion Aditya Chopra are on their way to mend fences. Her mentor Pradeep Sarkar is acting as the mediator.

Vidya Balan has continually refused to work in YRF films, first it was Jhoom Baraabar Jhoom followed by Pradeep Sarkar's Laaga Chunari Mein Daag. This had obviously not gone down too well with Chopra.

Pradeep Sarkar too had a fallout with the actress after she refused his second film. But the two made up later. It is Sarkar who now, wants Vidya to patch up with the Chopras.

Sarkar wants Vidya back for the third on his 3-film contract with YRF. The first two Laaga... and Lafangey Parindey bombed at the box office.

Considering Vidya has been his lucky charm, Parineeta being Sarkar's most acclaimed film till date, it comes as no surprise that the director wants this YRF Vidya patch up to work out.

The director convinced Aditya Chopra, who wasn't to keen on meeting the actress. A source reveals, "If all goes well, Vidya will star in YRF's film to be directed by Sarkar.

And knowing Vidya's sensibilities of choosing a role, Sarkar has a tailor made script for her. Only Aditya should give the green signal."

When contacted, Sarkar laughed and said, "Am I making Aditya meet Vidya?" "Well…," he continued, "Abhi tak baatchit nahin hui hai. Let me complete the script in all respects. But yes, I would love to work with Vidya again."

Though Vidya remained unavailable for comment, here's wishing that things work out for both her and YRF. And we get some decent cinema.
