Vidya was Agnihotri's first choice for women empowerment film

Vidya Balan is one such Bollywood actress, who has redefined the meaning of women-centric movies. With films like Kahaani and The Dirty Picture, Vidya has become the hot favourite of many B-Town filmmakers.

The same goes to filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri, who is all set to make a film on women's empowerment for T-Series. As per the reports, Agnihotri was keen to sign Vidya Balan for the lead role, but had to drop the idea. "My first choice for the film was Vidya Balan. But had Vidya not done Kahaani before, then she would have done this film. But I would certainly come with a script in future which would justify her," Agnihotri, who directed films like Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal, he told the IANS.

"Now we have approached some other actresses... Let's see how things fall in place," he added. Talking in details about his film, Agnihotri said, "The film is about women in today's society and the system that doesn't support them. It's a suspense thriller."
