Vidya likes the humour of Farhan in 'Shaadi Ke Side Effects'

1:22 PM | Labels: ,




With his straight-faced jokes Farhan Akhtar found an easy bakra (scapegoat) in me, says Vidya Balan, his co-star in the upcoming film `Shaadi Ke Side Effects`.

"I love to laugh and Farhan loves to make people laugh so the `funda` was very clear. He found an easy `bakra` in me. I enjoyed his sense of humour. He has a very sharp mind. I have seen the film and I am glad that we got together for this one where the comedy is very true to real life," Vidya told PTI in an interview.

Having been a fan of Farhan`s earlier films like `Luck By Chance` and `Zindagi Milegi Naa Dobaara`, Vidya says they were well-matched in the Saket Chaudhary-directed comedy, a genre which is relatively new for both the actors.

"Farhan is one of those actors who are subtle even in comedy. It is effortless and yet it makes you laugh. He is supremely talented in a multi-dimensional way.

"Acting is about reacting. This film would have suffered if any of us was out of tune but we were well-matched in it. We were completely tuned into each other which is great as an actor. We complimented each other.

The 36-year-old actress, who got married to UTV CEO Siddharth Roy Kapur in 2012, signed up the film a few months after the marriage but she does not believe her marriage life influenced the character she is playing in the film.

"I have played a married woman in many films. My first film was called `Parineeta-the married woman`. I don`t know whether I brought in my personal experiences into the film as it did not require that. Most love relationships are quite similar in many ways. Situations may differ but men and women tend to react in similar ways," says Vidya.

In the year 1947 the Singh family was at the death’s door of communal riot caused at the time of partition of India. The Milkha Singh was a boy of twelve only. Milkha’s parents and siblings were killed before his eyes. Before dying “Bhaag Milkha Bhaag”- (Ran Milkha run) was the last word of Milkha’s father. Milkha then started running to save his own life. He continued running through the rough way of life and thus passed away his teen age and youth. One day he reached at the track of Olympic Game. Such is the biographical history of the gold medalist of Asian Games & Commonwealth Games, the living legend of India, Milkha Singh. Directed by Rakeysh Omprokash Mehra, “Bhaag Milkha Bhaag” was named according to the last word of Milkha’s father.

It is a real story of rough and tough life of Milkha Singh. He lost his everything at his twelve. He had no shelter, no food. The situation leaded him to engage different type of crimes. He was almost drowning. But with a strong desire to come back, Milkha defeated darkness and reached to the light of success by a hard struggle.

Rakeysh Omprokash Mehra, director of “Rang De Basanti” has picked up almost every incidents of Milkha’s life in his new movie “Bhaag Milkha Bhaag” and has pictured those without any change or modification.

“Bhaag Milkha bhaag” was starred by promising director, producer, actor and singer Farhan Akhtar. In this movie Farhan Akhtar presented himself in a different look other than conventional heroic image and attracted the viewers. To be the real Milkha Singh, Farhan Akhtar had totally changed himself both in outlook and style. He also learned Panjabi language. In the movie he looked like a real athlete. His running in the track also seemed real, not artificial.


 Milkha Singh

Even Milkha Singh himself praised Farhan Akhtar for his realistic acting. Milkha Singh, now at his age of 77, says “Nobody can say that Farhan is not the real Milkha. He has imitated my every gesture and posture. It seems that I am watching myself in the screen.”

Sonam Kapoor acted as wife of Milkha Singh and captain of Indian volleyball team Nirmol Kaor. Another main attraction of the movie was famous actor Prakash Raj, who took a positive role for the first time in Bollywood movie. Yograj Singh, father of cricketer Yuvraj Singh, acted as coach of Milkha Shingh.

Milkha Singh sold the whole story of his life for One Rupee only. Most of the actor and actress performed here without any remuneration. Farhan Akhtar received a very small amount and Sonam Kapoor took Eleven Rupee only for performing in the movie.
