Critically acclaimed actor Vidya Balan, who is currently in top form having seen two back to back successes with Paa and Ishqiya, is in Kolkata to shoot her next film Nobody Killed Jessica.
DNA has learnt that the actor’s vanity van was gheraoed by a group of at least 500 people, causing a lot of stress to the production house who feared for her safety. Additional security was called to provide a security cover for the actor.

“Vidya’s fan following in Kolkata took everyone by surprise. As soon as people found out that she was shooting in the vicinity, they crowded around her vanity van and refused to move until they caught a glimpse of her. It was a scary situation as we were thinking that she should not be harmed in any way. We understood that the people were fans but you never know. Some trouble makers could be a part of any big group,” says a source from the production house.

The informer adds, “We had to call in additional security because we just couldn’t get her out with the crowd outside her van. Her vanity was locked from inside and Vidya was communicating with the crowd from her window. As soon as the security came by and Vidya too explained to the people that she had to get out to work, the situation was brought under control.”


However, the shooting for the day was completely disrupted. “We were all ready on the sets when this crowd just accumulated from nowhere. We had to try for hours to get Vidya out of it. We lost some costly hours of production but Vidya made sure that she put in the extra hours so that we don’t run into losses,” ends the source.
