Vidya Balan On Feeling 'Targeted' For Her 'Hey Babyy' Costumes At An Award Show: I Was Shattered
Vidya Balan shed light on the highly-debatable topic of nepotism, and said that "it does make a difference when you don't come from a film family."
바카라When they told me they바카라re going to give me the Na-Real Award, I said, 바카라Why me? My clothes are not just my choice, right?바카라 At that time, I was too new to have an opinion on anything. So they said, 바카라No, we바카라re just doing this fun segment so we바카라re going to give you this award.바카라 So I said, 바카라Fine, but I바카라m going to share it with the costume designer and the director,바카라 and they said, 바카라No, you mustn바카라t do that.바카라 And that, I think, is not nice,바카라 she said.
Upon reaching the venue, she revealed that she discovered that the other actress who was also supposed to receive the Na-Real Award had backed out. Feeling 바카라targeted,바카라 she opted to name her director and costume designer on stage while accepting the award, which sparked controversy later on and led to her receiving backlash from members within the film industry.

바카라At that night, I was shattered. I was shattered because I was very alone. I realized that yes; it does make a difference when you don바카라t come from a film family because no one outside you is looking out for you. It felt like bullying to me. It was. It undoubtedly was. Just because I don바카라t come with a certain shield, you can바카라t바카라 I thought it was a joke so it was okay. But when I realized I was the only one being made fun of, it wasn바카라t funny anymore,바카라 the 바카라Kahaani바카라 actress went on to say.
In case you weren바카라t aware, what had happened was that co-hosts Shah Rukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan were asked to present the award (shaped like a coconut) to the actress, who was seated in the audience. Despite her initial hesitation, they encouraged her to be a good sport. And during her acceptance speech, she said, 바카라I was asked to trust Sajid (Khan) and Manish (Malhotra).바카라
Presently, on the work front, the actress was last seen in 바카라Do Aur Do Pyaar.바카라 She will soon reprise her role as the iconic character of Manjulika in 바카라Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.바카라
