Powerhouse performer Vidya Balan, who enjoys slipping into the skin of every character she essays, features on the cover of a popular film magazine, where she transforms herself and pays tribute to the masters who kindled her madness for the movies. The photoshoot takes readers through the "Sad, Glad and Mad Side of Vidya Balan", reiterating with every frame, that she is cut from a different cloth. While Vidya believes imitation is the highest form of flattery, she steps into the shoes of icons Guru Dutt, Charlie Chaplin, Raj Kapoor and Kishore Kumar - yesteryear icons who stood for the same essence of excellence in cinema. In an exclusive photoshoot with the magazine, the timeless beauty brings out the timeless men in the most dramatic way -
Talking about Guru Dutt Vidya said, "Guru Dutts films make you wonder about the world and about life ...yeh duniya agar mil bhi haaye toh kya hai?!! "
On Kishore Kumar, quoted the "Ooh La La" beauty, "Kishoreda didn't care about what you thought about him and that showed in his work...that certain irreverence ,not insolence is what I identify with".
On Raj Kapoor, Vidya said, "No 1 has been able to capture the image of the common man more than him.His films are relevant even today."
About Charlie Chaplin the actress said, "Chaplin is Chaplin...He was clumsy , he was goofy...And he had the power to make you laugh even in tragedy".
