So far Vidya Balan has been maintaining an excellent track record at box office.
Her debut film 'Parineeta' did quite well when it released last year. She excelled in an author back role and was noticed by all those who matter. This was followed by 'Lage Raho Munnabhai' that is most critically acclaimed film this year and was also the highest box office grosser till last week before 'Dhoom 2' overtook its collections.
Common factor between 'Parineeta' and 'Lage Raho Munnabhai' was Vidhu Vinod Chopra who had produced both the films.
Now for the first time ever in her short film career so far, she would be seeing a release of a film that comes from a different production house. 'Guru' releases on 12th January which is a co-production of Mani Ratnam and G Srinivasan.
So far, film's publicity has been centered on Abhishek Bachchan and to an extent Aishwarya Rai so far but not many are aware that Vidya has a small but an important part to play in this Mani Ratnam directed film. She plays the role of a handicapped girl who is confined to a wheel chair and is an admirer of Guru.
