Mumbai, March 18: Bollywood actress Vidya Balan, who essays the role of Silk Smitha in ‘The Dirty Picture’, says that portraying the southern seductress will not be a difficult job for her.
“I don’t think it is difficult to portray a real-life character like Silk Smitha. People know her through her work, through films and songs,” Vidya told PTI in an interview.
However, the actress said it would be challenging to portray characters of prominent personalities.
“It would be challenging if I play a character based on Indira Gandhi as people know her mannerisms and you can’t go wrong for a person of this stature who was a Prime Minister.
She continues to be a prominent person. Even in that case to play Amitabh Bachchan would be challenging,” she said.
“With Silk Smitha it is going to be more of my personal interpretation than her impersonation,” she added.
