Is Sex Dirty? Only if it's done right.
- Woody AllenNo wonder the movie has been named "The Dirty Picture", as Vidya did it right this time. (Remember she had also slept with her co-characters in Parineeta, Ekalavya, Paa and Ishqiya, but had never been called Dirty)
The movie is loosely based on story of Silk Smitha, The Item Girl of South Indian Movies. Vidya is no match to the sensation of Sleaze and Seduction which only Silk could create with such ease. Men would go crazy each time Silk bit her lips (her signature style) or when she seduced her co-stars with her killing looks. Yesteryear Item Girls Silk Smitha, Disco Shanti and Jayamalini will always remain my favourites.
Having said that, there are only 3 ingredients which guarantees the success of this movie
- Vidya Silk Balan
- Vidya Silk Balan
And More
- Vidya Silk Balan
Vidya as Reshma (village girl) or as Silk (item girl) is the masala factor of the movie and the scenes she is not present tastes bland. The ever dependable Naserrudin as Suryakant, The Superstar, makes up for all the intimate scenes he lost in Ishqiya. Tushar Kapoor as Naseruddin's brother has nothing much to offer. Emraan for a change has done a good job.
The bold dialogues by Rajat Arora complement the sensuous avatar of Vidya. Ooh-La-La song makes up for the otherwise average music by Vishal-Shekar.
Vidya Silk Balan gives every item girl in Bollywood run for their money when she dances draped in a wet red saree. This is the paisa vasool scene of the movie.(Watch it to believe it).
Hope Vidya takes on more roles like this and gets more Dirty.
Think About It: Curves had almost vanished with most females wanting to get to Size Zero. Thanks to Vidya, Dangerous Curves will prevail again.
You hit the nail on the head, vidya is good, but silk was awesome. Her soul would finally rest in peace. Amen !
