Vidya Balan praises Malayalam actors Urvashi and Fahadh Faasil; says ‘They don't write comedy roles for women in Hindi cinema…’

As an ardent fan of Indian cinema, I find myself utterly captivated by Vidya Balan’s latest interview with Rekha Menon. Her admiration for Malayalam actors, particularly Urvashi, resonates deeply with me, as it mirrors my own feelings. It’s refreshing to see an actress of her caliber acknowledge the richness and talent that lies in the Malayalam film industry.


Recently, Vidya Balan was interviewed by Rekha Menon and spoke highly of Malayalam actors during the conversation. Discussing the lack of comedy roles for women in Hindi cinema, she expressed her thoughts by saying, “There are not many comedy roles written for women in Hindi films. However, in Malayalam cinema, there is Urvashi chechi. She is my favorite actress of all time.

The actress continued to demonstrate that actors such as Urvashi and Sridevi could effortlessly tackle comedy, but this skill seems less prevalent among contemporary actresses. Moving on to Malayalam cinema, Vidya expressed her admiration for Fahadh’s work, adding that there are many others she appreciates, including Basil Joseph, and Anna Ben, whom she also finds talented as an actor.

Actress Vidya expressed that she’s particularly enthusiastic about taking on comedy parts in movies, which is why she shares amusing content on social media. Furthermore, she shared that she’s open to working in Malayalam films, but only if she receives suitable roles for it to materialize.

Previously, Vidya Balan graced a Malayalam film titled Urumi in 2011, which starred Prithviraj Sukumaran. This epic historical drama was helmed by Santosh Sivan and depicted life during the 16th century of Kerala when the Portuguese had control over the Indian Ocean.

In this movie, the main storyline revolves around Murikkancheri Kelu, a man seeking revenge against his father’s murderers, who were oppressors. He is joined by others who have suffered similar injustices. The film also features Prabhu Deva and Genelia D’Souza as the leading characters, making their acting debuts in Malayalam cinema.

In the time to come, Vidya Balan recently graced our screens in the film titled “Do Aur Do Pyaar.” This production was helmed by newcomer Shirsha Guha Thakurta. Notably, this romantic comedy also featured Pratik Gandhi, Ileana D’Cruz, and Sendhil Ramamurthy in prominent roles.

Here’s one way of paraphrasing it:
