Vidya and Siddharth got married in 2012, after dating for some time in private.
Vidya Balan will be next seen in Neeyat which is a murder mystery. The actor plays a detective named Mira Rao.
Vidya Balan is not very open when it comes to her personal life. She likes to keep it away from public glare. Well, the Neeyat actress recently opened up about her marriage and shared how she met her husband Sidharth Roy Kapur. She also revealed that director Karan Johar played cupid in her love life.
As reported by the Indian Express, the actress shared that when she met Siddharth Roy Kapur, whom she described as the most good-looking man she has met, she said that it was ‘lust at first sight’. But over time, she began admiring how secure he was as a person, ‘more secure than most men’ she had met. “Siddharth is very private, but also very authentic’, and revealed that it was Siddharth who ‘made the first move’. But she admitted that she wasn’t quite like that in the early days of their marriage. “I was also playing to the gallery when I said things about him, I wanted to sensationalise things…” she was quoted saying at Ranveer Allahbadia’s podcast. Vidya and Siddharth got married in 2012 in an intimate ceremony.
On the work front, Vidya is gearing up for her next film Neeyat which is murder mystery. The actor plays a detective named Mira Rao, who investigates a murder at a billionaire’s party in the Scottish countryside. The film, which releases on July 7, also features Ram Kapoor, Rahul Bose, Shahana Goswami, Prajakta Koli, Neeraj Kabi, Shashank Arora. Due to its startling resemblance to the Daniel Craig-starring Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022) teaser, the movie received a lot of attention. Some others even compared the movie’s setting and structure to Agatha Christie’s novels.
In an exclusive chat with News18, filmmaker Anu Menon talks about the comparisons and says that they finished shooting for Neeyat even before the Daniel Craig starrer released on Netflix. “We finished shooting the film in June last year, and Glass Onion… released in December 2023, so unless I stole filmmaker Rian Johnson’s script (laughs), there is no way the two films can be similar and we can copy it.”
