Vidya Balan said that playing the role of Dirty Picture’s Silk Smitha is not going to be much difficult as she is confident of portraying it well.

 

Vidya said, “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."

 

The actress added, "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 and respectable person. Even in that case to play Amitabh Bachchan would be challenging."

 

Vidya said that she will play Silk Smitha with her personal interpretation. Even previously, Vidya was excellent in performing the character of Sabrina Lal in No One Killed Jessica.

About the film she said, "The film is an ode to the life of the southern sexy siren Vijay Lakshmi, better known as Silk Smitha, and her journey to stardom followed by her sudden demise."
