Vidya Balan has got a tough job on hands, it seems. The actress, who is all set to play Jessica Lal’s sister Sabrina Lal in ‘No One Killed Jessica’, has been barred from taking cues from Sabrina to prepare for the same.
Don’t worry, there’s no political party or anything involved here, but filmmaker Gupta himself has decided to not let Balan meet Sabrina. Rajkumar, who is really looking forward to the project, wants Vidya to pull off the role in her own way.
According to a source, Gupta doesn’t want Vidya to meet Sabrina because he believes that she would then pick up the latter’s mannerisms and replicate Sabrina’s actions when filming. He wants her to do the role in a different manner.
‘No One Killed Jessica’ also stars actress Rani Mukerji in a very important role - that of a journalist on the lines of a firebrand reporter Barkha Dutt. However, Jessica Lal’s role will be played by a newcomer in the film. Grapevine has it that Kareena Kapoor had been approached for playing Jessica in the film, but the actress turned down the offer thinking that she would have had very little to do especially as the character gets murdered in the early part of the story.
Guess Vidya surely have to work really hard for it.
