HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD Vidya Balan had to sweat it out to look her age26th June 2008 11.00 IST By Agencies Vidya Balan says that she had to undergo a weight reduction programme before beginning to shoot for Aziz Mirza 's film Kismat Konnection opposite Shahid Kapur . For the first time in her career, Vidya said she is acting opposite a hero who is of her age. 
"After working with likes of Sanjay Dutt , Ajay Devgan , Saif Ali Khan , I am for the first time being paired opposite Shahid who is of my age. Hence, I had to go on yoga and dieting," she added. Speaking about 'Kismat Konnection', Vidya said like all Aziz Mirza films, this one too is about simplicity and emotions of a common man. "I always wanted to work with Aziz after watching his films like 'Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman,' 'Yes Boss,' Chalte Chalte and Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani . He is a sensible director, she said. Vidya said she has sustained the momentum generated after her debut in Parineeta . "I have had blockbusters like Lage Raho Munnabhai , Heyy Babyy , and Bhool Bhulaiyaa . I was upset that 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' was not nominated for awards in the categories it deserved," she added. To question on criticism about her clothes, Vidya said she wears what she likes. Speaking about 'Kismat Konnection,' Vidya said the film shot entirely in Toronto has an emotional appeal. The film was earlier titled 'Lucky Charm' but the name was changed as the producers thought the title would not go down well with small exhibition centres. 'Kismat Konnection' releases next month.
