The Dirty Picture: Vidya Balan exposing in red blouse

First look of ‘The Dirty Picture’ is out where Vidya Balan is playing sex bombshell Silk Smitha and the teaser proved to be a bombardment as Vidya Balan exposing her secret asset in a red blouse with three actors, Nassseruddin Shah, Emraan Hashmi and Tusshar Kapoor getting too intimate to the actor. Red blouse, red saree and red lip-stick gives a perfect relection of the 80's.


 "The poster and the logo of the film has a very 1980s feel to it because the movie is set in that period. We will be launching the first trailer of 'The Dirty Picture' in Mumbai August 30," Girish Johar, head of acquisition and distribution, Balaji Motion Pictures, told IANS over the phone from Mumbai.

The film will be released on December 2, the birth anniversary o f Silk Smitha. Smitha was a hot name of the 80’s where her semi-nude roles and bold scene earned her huge popularity but later financial crisis and personal problems took a toll in her life.


 The film has been produced by Ekta Kapoor and directed by Milan Luthria. Ekta told: "It's a beautiful coincidence since she is one of our muses, along with other Southern actors like Shakeela, Nylon Nandini and Polyester Padmini."

"My film is not inspired by any one of them, but is a reflection of an era when they used their sexuality to carve a niche for themselves in the male-dominated South film industry. Many frowned upon them, but they were survivors and their power over the masses cannot be denied," she added.
