MUMBAI – March 20 (ONLINE) Bollywood star Vidya Balan recently recalled how she was subjected to disrespectful behavior and mistreatment early in her career to the point that she could not look in the mirror for six months due to one such encounter.
Speaking to an Indian publication, Balan revealed how she was replaced in 13 films. “In recent times, I have received calls from them [producers who earlier replaced her in their films],” she shared. “But I politely refused to be part of their films. I was kicked out of 13 films.”
“When one producer replaced me in a film, their behavior with me was very bad,” the actor continued narrating a heartbreaking experience. “They made me feel so ugly that for six months, I could not gather the courage to look at myself in the mirror.”
The Humari Adhuri Kahani star recalled one such rejection which led her to walk over a large distance in Mumbai in the scorching heat. “I had signed two films with K Balachander at a time when I was being replaced in many films. I got to know that I was also replaced in Balachander’s film and I was not even informed,” she said.
