Vidya Balan



Vidya Balan, the renowned Bollywood actor set to grace the screens in the much-anticipated film Neeyat, recently made a surprising revelation about her past. She candidly admitted that she once embarked on a daring venture of masquerading as a destitute outside a prestigious five-star hotel in Mumbai. Astonishingly, she undertook this audacious feat as part of a bet, with the enticing reward of securing extra packs of her beloved Jim-Jam biscuits.


During an interview with Mashable, Vidya shared intriguing details of her escapade. She reminisced about the Indian Music Group (IMG), an esteemed organization renowned for organizing mesmerizing Indian classical music concerts spanning three consecutive nights. Enthusiastically involved as a volunteer, Vidya revealed that after the exhilarating performances concluded, the committee members would embark on leisurely strolls to Nariman Point, embracing the serene ambiance of the night.

Recalling the incident with a mix of amusement and triumph, Vidya Balan shared, "There was this one time when I was challenged. They dared me to visit the coffee shop at Oberoi - The Palms and knock on their door, requesting food. Little did they know that I was an actress. I diligently knocked persistently, fully aware of how people can get irritated. I kept repeating, 'Please, I'm hungry. I haven't eaten anything since yesterday.' Gradually, they began to avert their gaze, and at that point, my friend felt embarrassed and urged me to leave. But in the end, I emerged victorious, winning the bet."

Since Britannia sponsored our concert, we had an abundance of biscuits. So, the deal was that if I went through with this daring act, I would be rewarded with an additional packet of Jim-Jam biscuits. And guess what? I emerged triumphant, relishing the sweet taste of victory and an extra packet of my beloved biscuits."
