In the past actresses have proved to be lucky for their directors.
There was a time when Indra Kumar could not think of making a
film without Madhuri (Dixit) in it. The Chopras considered Sridevi
to be their lucky mascot. Ram Gopal Varma believed that Urmila
brought him the much needed luck that a director needs to survive
in the film industry. Sanjay Leela Bhansali bestowed the luck
factor on Aishwarya Rai. The latest addition to the above names
is Vidya Balan. If Vidya's career graph is observed closely, out
of the five releases that the actress has had till date--Parineeta,
Lagey Raho Munnabhai, Heyy Babyy, Bhool
Bhulaiya, Guru--all have been super hits.
A trade analyst said, "Like Sridevi and Madhuri who were
criticized for their bad dress sense, Vidya too has been cornered
by the critics. But that has not affected her in anyway as Vidya
has dished out hits one after the other. Directors continued to
cast Madhuri and Sridevi in their films; the same case is with
Vidya Balan. She is considered to be in top league of actress'
today.'
Though she is being showered with praises for her looks, Balan
is not taking her career for granted and is genuinely working
on her style and clothes. A source close to the actress said,
"Vidya Balan is working hard on her clothes and designer
Sabina Khan is helping her with it."
Now with Vidya being declared a lucky mascot and Shahid the future
superstar will be of any surprise if Kismat Konnection
immediately connects at the box-office?
