Besides
being
a
brilliant
actress,
Vidya
Balan
is
also
one
of
the
few
actresses
in
the
Hindi
film
industry
who
has
always
been
vocal
about
the
low
points
in
her
film
journey.
In
her
recent
interview
with
a
leading
tabloid,
the
Sherni
actress
recalled
facing
trolling
and
said
that
it
felt
'extremely
severe'.
She
added
that
she
was
heartbroken,
devastated
and
low
on
confidence.
Vidya
told
ETimes,
"It
still
felt
extremely
severe.
I
remember
making
headlines
for
all
the
wrong
reasons.
And
I
used
to
be
heartbroken
and
devastated.
I
used
to
be
so
low
on
confidence.
I
didn't
know
how
to
hold
my
hand.
When
I
was
going
to
appearances,
I
didn't
know
where
to
hold
my
hands
by
my
side,
or
hold
them
or
keep
them
on
the
waist.
I
was
always
so
scared
of
what
I
would
get
picked
on
for."
On
being
asked
why
it
didn't
show
on
the
camera,
the
actress
said,
"Because
I
trust
the
camera
more
than
anything
else.
I
think
the
camera
is
my
safe
space.
Which
is
why,
when
I'm
facing
the
camera,
nothing
else
matters...I'm
happy
being
in
front
of
the
camera,
my
closest
confidant."
Vidya
also
talked
about
facing
rejections
in
her
life
and
said
that
each
one
of
them
was
invaluable
as
it
contributed
to
who
she
is
today
and
where
she
has
reached.
"They
made
my
fire
a
raging
one,
they
lit
the
fire
to
do
what
I
want
to
do
and
to
do
it
my
way.
I'm
very
grateful
for
those
rejections.
Of
course,
this
is
in
retrospect.
At
that
point
I
was
angry
and
I
was
low
on
confidence.
But
today,
in
retrospect,
I
realize
that
all
of
that
was
so
important.
It
made
me
who
I
am.
It's
made
me
the
actor
that
I
am,"
the
tabloid
quoted
her
as
saying.
With
respect
to
movies,
Vidya
was
recently
seen
in
the
Amazon
Prime
Video
film
Jalsa
alongside
Shefali
Shah.
She
will
next
be
seen
in
a
yet-to-be-titled
romantic
comedy
which
also
stars
Pratik
Gandhi,
Ileana
D'Cruz
and
Senthil
Ramamurthy.
