Vidya who is playing the sultry role of ‘Silk Smitha’, the south Indian siren in Ekta Kapoor’s production and Milan Lutharia’s directed, a much hyped biopic ‘Dirty Picture’ encountered an unhealthy problem.

Reportedly, the film contains a lot of skin show but a bathtub scene has spoiled Vidya’s skin for which she had to run to a dermatologist.

She developed the rough as soon as she was done with the scene but she ignored. However, when it turned into red rashes then she raised the alarm and hurriedly taken to a dermatologist.

A source said, “Vidya soon realized that she had developed an allergy. The rash spread all over her body. She quickly got dressed. Abandoning the shoot, she went to see the doctor immediately.”

Many would blame the unhygienic water but Balaji Motion Pictures says that they have organized for mineral water for the scene. The source added, “Balaji Motion Pictures had organised for mineral water to be filled in the bathtub. Luthria is very particular about his actors getting the best.

Despite the precautions, Vidya developed the allergy. It could be due to the bathtub, which was hand painted. It could be the soap or maybe just the fact that she had remained in soap water for a long time.”

While the doctor said that it happened due to higher presence of alkali in the soap to which Vidya was exposed for a good time which resulted into red rashes.

Next time check your brand of soap Vidya, else the ‘Dirty Picture’ will seriously go dirty!

And the first look image of Vidya looks seducing, inviting whoever that would be, with the thumb on the corner of her lips.

Quite frankly, as reported she looked to have gained weight for the portrayal of Silk Smitha, but it isn’t making a ‘Dirty Picture’ of Vidya.

The film also features Tusshar Kapoor, Emran Hashmi and Naseeruddin Shah.

Ekta has chosen Vishal-Shekhar to compose the music of ‘Dirty Picture’. Now we hope the duo can tune in some great compositions so that they may not be replaced by someone in later ventures of Ekta!

The film which is based on the 80’s South Indian siren ‘Silk Smitha’ has started gathering too much headlines as the film features Emraan Hashmi, Tusshar Kapoor, Vidya Balan and Naseeruddin Shah. To keep the essence and freshness of the character Ekta took this step and even asked the visitors to come sans mobile phones.

Ekta Kapoor told TOI when asked about the ban, “Every actor in the film will essay the role of an individual from the South Indian film industry. Tusshar will play a struggling writer while Naseer will essay the character of a grown up actor who works in children’s films in the eighties.

This is the first time a Hindi film will depict the South Indian cine industry. There are different colours to each character and everyone has a specific look. The cell phones on the sets can ruin everything for us.”

“We keep on hearing of incidents about looks being revealed and I don’t want that for my film. I want to bring out every look in the proper way,” added Ekta.

She revealed the looks of the actors, “The men in my film are not going to look hot – Naseerbhai will be seen wearing wigs. I am dreading that he might end up looking scary. I don’t want the characters to look like caricatures.”

“Vidya, however, will be seen in revealing clothes. She has three or four different looks in the film,” she added, about the female lead in Dirty Picture.

Is there anyone out to reveal the ‘Dirty Picture’??

It is said that Tusshar is required to look so to match the character of a South Indian writer of 80’s. Told a source from Balaji to Mid-Day, “Last week, when he went for the costume trial of the Vidya Balan-starrer, Tusshar was in for a shock.

The film’s costume designer told him that for his role as a south Indian writer from the 1980s, he had to put on a lot of weight. An upset TK took the matter up with his sister.”

Ekta told him that he would have to get flabby for the character. “She said that he was ‘too fit’ for the role. Tusshar was equally adamant about not gaining the extra kilos. Their argument went on and on,” adds the source.

Tusshar plays it safe, “I will do as my director says. It’s just that I was shocked when asked to put on so much weight! I have worked hard to get a good body.”

Tusshar knows he can’t do anything else than too listen to sister, else he will be made ‘Dirty’ at home!

Vidya carries a plum look although her film career so far but Dirty Picture requires her to lose weight and then put on in a short span of time. This requirement was too much for the actress and Ekta Kapoor melt down and chooses the idea of cosmetic help to increase the size of her butt.

The makers of the Dirty Picture have asked the makeup artists to keep a good eye on Vidya’s bust line with the help of prosthetic.

Let see either the film goes ‘Dirty’ or a clean deal.
