Didn’t believe I could be so sexual: Vidya Balan

Vidya Balan is the latest Bollywood beauty to turn item girl for an upcoming film and the actress credits her performance in ‘The Dirty Picture’ with the change in people’s perception about her.

Vidya, who will be seen doing a Lavani number in Sharman Joshi starrer yet-to-be-released film, ‘Ferrari Ki Sawaari’, says people couldn’t have imagined her in a sensual avatar before she grooved to ‘Ooh La La’ and ‘Naak Mukka’ in her last release.

“May be they saw different side of me (in ‘Dirty Picture’). No item songs came my way before… I don’t think anyone could have believed – even I did not believe that I could be so sexual.
Like she did for ‘The Dirty Picture’ – Vidya Balan went on to promote her latest movie ‘Kahaani’ on a serial on national TV.

“I am not a dancer, I began to enjoy dancing more, but I go more with the feeling of the movement,” said Vidya.

After Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone and Shilpa Shetty, Vidya is the latest to join the bandwagon of actresses doing item songs.

“I have finished shooting for the song in ‘Ferrari… It is a Lavani, a koli song, I can’t reveal much about it,” she said.
