Speaking to the Indian media during the promotions of her forthcoming film ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’, Vidya Balan, who starred alongside Akshay Kumar in the first movie of the horror-comedy franchise, revealed why she rejected the second film with Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani.
Balan shared that she was scared not to ruin the impact she was able to create in the original film directed by Priyadarshan which turned out to be a huge blockbuster.
“I was so scared because Bhool Bhulaiyaa has given me so much. So I said, if I did something wrong, then everything would be in vain. I told Anees [Bazmee] ji that I can’t take this risk,” she said.
The ‘Kahaani’ actor continued, “But when they came back to me with the third part, I loved the script. I was dying to work on this with Anees bhai and Bhushan [Kumar]. And then it only kept getting better.”
“And then the icing on the cake was working with Madhuri Dixit ma’am. So, I think it only kept getting better, and I accumulated the courage. I had a great time,” she added. “He (Bazmee) is the king of entertainment. I had the opportunity to work with him.”
