Top On Vidya Balan's Wish List

Vidya Balan

Having aced many challenging roles, Vidya Balan now has her eyes set on a double role and a role opposite "eternal romantic" Shah Rukh Khan.

Balan looks upon her recent double role - as a sensuous character and a traditional one - in the TVC of Pepsico's popular baked snack Aliva as just starters.

At the Aliva launch event in New Delhi, Vidya made a memorable appearance in a striking outfit that combined her two on-screen looks.

But it's a double role in a film that Vidya is really gunning for.

"I want to do double roles. I love Sridevi in Chaalbaaz and Hema Malini in Seeta Aur Geeta," she told HT during a recent visit to the NCR.

Her other unfulfilled ambition is to work with Shah Rukh Khan.

"I always want to work with Shah Rukh. For me, he is the eternal romantic. Let's see when it happens," she said.

For the time being, Balan is enjoying a short break from films before starting on Raj Kumar Gupta's Ghanchakkar, opposite Emraan Hashmi, in August.

"I am excited as this is for the first time that I will be doing comedy on the big screen after Hum Paanch on TV," she said.

In more Vidya Balan news, Kahaani director Sujoy Ghosh recently tweeted that he had started work on two new script - One for the Bachchans and "one for THE Bachchan and one for the Balan."
