Veteran actress late Meena Kumari's biopic has been in news
for the longest time now. A numerous names have popped up for essaying the role
- previously it was Kangana Ranaut and then Priyanka Chopra. Now, going by the
report in a famous tabloid, it's Vidya Balan who will be stepping into the
shoes of Meena Kumari.
A source said the tabloid, "Vidya has been offered the
biopic now. The makers feel she can perfectly portray the actress on screen and
hence approached her for the biopic.”
While Vidya is keen to do the movie, she has not given a nod
yet. “The actress has just wrapped Tumhari Sulu and she’s been receiving a lot
of great scripts. This is one of them. The makers will now give her a proper
narration and then, she will decide whether she will do it or not," the
source further added.
In 2015, Kangana was to essay the role but the yesteryear
actress's brother was not in favour of it. The movie was to be directed by
Tigmanshu Dhulia. Kangana had even said that she hoped “things work out
[vis-à-vis the film]”. But, then it was
put on hold due to the lack of adequate information and rights.
It will be exciting to see Vidya in the film provided she
says yes to the script.
