Vidya Balan soared high to choose roles after she played Silk Smitha in 'The Dirty Picture'. She has been offered and has refused several films on biopics like singer, Subbulakshmi, late politician Benazir Bhutto and yesteryear actress, Suchitra Sen.
About not taking Suchitra Sen, she said, "I was approached for the biopic, but I chose not to do it." She added, "It was a Bengali film. At least, if it was a Hindi film, it was still okay that I looked completely different from her. But for a Bengali film, I just thought when there is a Raima Sen, it didn't make any sense for me to do it. Though I would have loved to play her and the script was very good, Raima looks so much like her grandmom Suchitra Sen and I thought it will look more credible."
She also revealed that she does wants to play Indira Gandhi on screen whom she finds charismatic, powerful and yet so mysterious.
She said, " …You don't know about the person Indira Gandhi. So it would be a great biopic to star in." Vidya will seen in the bed of roses with the film, 'Hamari Adhuri Kahani' which releases tomorrow, June 12.
