One
film
that
has
been
much
talked
about
ever
since
its
announcement
is
Ekta
Kapoor's
The
Dirty
Picture
directed
by
Milan
Luthria.
The
film,
which
is
based
on
South
siren
Silk
Smitha's
life,
has
Vidya
Balan
essaying
the
lead
role.
Now
the
latest
is
that
the
makers
have
roped
in
none
other
than
veteran
actor
Naseeruddin
Shah
to
play
an
important
role
in
The
Dirty
Picture.
Naseer
saab's
character
is
apparently
based
on
South
superstar
Rajinikanth.
Naseer
would
be
seen
wearing
flamboyant
clothes
like
how
Rajini
usually
wears
and
will
also
be
sporting
different
types
of
wigs.
Surprisingly
Naseer
has
not
seen
a
single
Rajinikanth
film
and
plans
to
catch
up
on
some
of
his
hit
films
to
get
the
nuances
of
the
character
bang
on.

Apparently
Vidya's
character
in
the
film
idolises
the
character
played
by
Naseer
saab.
This
would
be
the
second
time
Vidya
and
Naseer
would
be
sharing
screen
space
after
the
much
acclaimed
Ishqiya.
Besides
Vidya
and
Naseer
saab,
there's
strong
buzz
that
The
Dirty
Picture
also
stars
Emraan
Hashmi
and
Tusshar
Kapoor
in
important
roles.
