Vishal
Bharadwaj
is
very
strict
about
his
character
portrayals
in
the
films
produced
by
him.
The
director-producer
sees
to
it
that
the
actor
actually
learns
the
skills
in
reality
and
not
fake
it
on
screen.
If
Vishal
made
Saif
Ali
Khan
learn
the
UP
dialect
including
the
expletives
in
Omkara
the
director
has
made
Vidya
Balan
take
driving
lessons
for
Ishqiya.
"Vidya
was
a
complete
phobic
when
it
came
to
driving.
She
has
acute
road
phobia.
She
was
petrified
at
the
thought
of
driving.
The
very
thought
of
driving
a
car
would
send
shivers
down
her
spine.
But
not
anymore!
And
it
is
all
thanks
to
Vishal
Bharadwaj.
Driving
a
car
was
something
that
is
completely
alien
to
her.
But
Vishal
saw
to
it
that
she
mastered
the
art
and
now
is
pretty
comfortable
manoeuvring
her
car
on
the
road."
Vidya
hasn't
stopped
thanking
Vishal
for
making
her
overcome
her
fears.
