Vidya Balan is without a doubt one of the most versatile actresses in Indian cinema today. Time and again, she has proved her mettle with incredible performances in movies like 'Parineeta', 'The Dirty Picture', 'Tumhari Sulu', 'Kahaani', 'Paa', and several others.

Vidya further said that she was labelled as 'jinxed' after that.
