Ms. Balan is “one of the most blessed actresses of the times.”

“She brings depth and poise to her character and adds conviction in every scene,” he added.

‘Kahaani’ has featured Vidya Balan in the lead role. Nevertheless, Parambrata Chatterjee and Saswata Chatterjee have also played a key role in the movie.
