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.
