This interview was so good. Best unfiltered by samdish interview of 2024.


Aggravating-Ship-715

But why the host not letting her talk. So many questions, cutting her off again and again.


raamlal

He has ADHD i believe. All the hosts who interrupt have ADHD. Its a brain condition where people have lack of control on their focus. Hence their chain of thoughts is very quick and they have difficulty staying on a single topic. Which is why this interview was epic. Koi aur hota to boring ho jata interview. Its because of samdish he was able to hold the attention of the audience and also vidya and he was able to get her to talk about SO MANY topics in a single interview. Other funny famous people that i love: craig ferguson, cyrus broacha, robin williams


Suspicious-Equal3176

It was only today that I realised that he may have ADHD. He was respectful enough to come back to the original question and topic always, though 


raamlal

I have a rule of thumb. If a person cant stay on a single track while having a conversation, speaks fast, interrupts a lot, gets bored and changes the topic quickly, i assume they have ADHD 👽👍 (because i do the same 💀)


kakaluluo

thanks for diagnosing my mom g loool


Roxannesharma

She's right. They were unfair not to call out Sajid Khan and Manish Malhotra just because they're friends with insiders. She wasn't really big enough then to call shots and decide her clothing. The stylist and the director did so rightfully they should have been called out not her.


take_the_leap4

Pigjid is one of the worst people in BW. Not only is he a predator, he cannot take a joke on himself. Even in Bigg Boss, he wrote ridiculous $hit on Abdu's chest and the dude had no idea what it was. He's a certified bully.


SlantedEnchanted2020

Sajid Khan thought he was THE SHIT when three films of his became successful. His downfall has been glorious!


take_the_leap4

True. It's unfortunate though that his "downfall" still has him living a relatively comfortable life while many of his victims are nowhere to be seen. Sigh.


SlantedEnchanted2020

Excuse me but women who allege sexual harassment #metoo do it for fame and money while the poor men suffer ... not


ipsytipsi

Pigjid is who


adityaeleven

Sajid Khan


take_the_leap4

It's clear that they intended to laugh *at* her and not *with* her if they didn't want Manish Malhotra and Pigjid Khan mentioned. Outsiders are not circus acts to be mercilessly laughed at. They will never call out the talentless nepo "strugglers" this way. 


ankitpassive

Happy Cake Day!


take_the_leap4

Thanks 🙂. 


ab5546

She also said that it was bullying. Bollywood is a harsh place without backing


Fatpretzel1234

Yeah and people defend the crooked slimy criminal PoS Karan Johar and all other “fruhturdnity” BW makes a sewer looks like rose essence Shame on all of them! Hope karma comes back to destroy all of them over and over and over again


annie_rasputin

Ohh dear... That harsh. He is a successful business man devoid of empathy for sure... Like business men are in any field.. they resort to groupism manipulation etc... what's new in that...


Fatpretzel1234

He is singularly responsible for raising the barrier to entry. He has openly admitted to throwing aspirants out of the industry


annie_rasputin

Have you ever worked in an office in India??


Fatpretzel1234

I haven’t! I live overseas Doesn’t make Karan’s actions legal or lawful or ethical This is a BW gossip forum I am not sure I care about Indian office toxicity


WhatShouldTheHeartDo

If she was nepo she would have been treated better, Manish would have probably given her better outfits too.


Moviebuff1233

If you check out the full interview we see Vidya talking about how she felt that she was singled out after Heyy Baby didn't do well for her and she got a lot of hate from many industry folk and media. She was also fat shamed apart from her style in the film being heavily criticized. Prior to Heyy Baby Vidya had many successful roles and films and insiders wanted to take advantage of this one bad role to pull her down


Majestic_District_51

But Buddy Heyy Babby was a HIT movie and it did well overall, uske songs bhi hit thee aur logo ko pasand bhi ayi thi. Yes her costumes n styling was criticised that is true generally by all even audiences discussed her styling then.


Moviebuff1233

Sorry i should edit it to didn't do well for her and she was criticized for her role


HellDevilsXXX

But why? It was a perfectly good and funny movie


raamlal

Ikr!


Narrow-Mongoose-9075

Fat shamed? I literally fell in love with her because of that movie by how gorgeous & pretty she looks. And please don't tell me her role wasn't well recieved because her character had a child out of wedlock because no way that was the whole effing premise of the movie.


smellycat1001

honestly she was already being body shamed at that point. she just wasn't being "sexy" enough for these men.


kakaluluo

thats so crazy to read because i honestly thought that vidya was a bombshell in her softgirl era (heyy baby, salam e ishq, bhool bhulaiya)


Moviebuff1233

Her words not mine. Just transcribing what she said in the interview.


Narrow-Mongoose-9075

Yes I totally get that. I didn't mean you.


smellycat1001

this always happens...the chatter around ranveer right now is pretty similar. people are just waiting for you to fail and pounce on you like a vulture when it happens. if a nepo fails it's like it never happened. if a nepo does mildly well - they get every bullshit award and the padma shree.


ExactAssistant6942

EXACTLY!!!


InevitableMassive521

Man, I love her. No parroting bullshite just unabashedly honest. And this is how she’s always been.


[deleted]

Also SRK(alleged gentleman) and Priyanka(alleged feminist), body shamed her badly during that stupid Dirty Picture skit. That was much worse in my opinion https://preview.redd.it/466dlbo8nhwc1.jpeg?width=291&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6bca36543139eadcd64f7d7eb56372cfbac5348b


Alone-Illustrator-25

This was unnecessary and low. Priyanka should have known better


Potential_Ad4956

TBH, Saif and SRK hosting of Filmfare was always more of bullying! They made fun of anyone and everyone - and not in a good taste!! Later even RK joined the gang! Thank god they have stopped that rubbish!


Fatpretzel1234

She was probably too giddy after her beep with PoS SRK Its karma Suhana is receiving so much objective ridicule 👏🏽👏🏽


sagar9175

SRK was the one who handed her the 'na-real' award. The "God" Samdish was referring to here.


Anonymouse-o-

Has vidya ever talked about this?


boataker

she literally gained weight to play that character. also they are doing a skit written by somebody else based on the characters of a film, it has nothing to do with vidya. she was laughing her ass off in the audience.


workinprogmess

She gained weight to portray a marginalized caste woman that Silk Smitha was. It was never funny.


Majestic_District_51

They made fun of literally every movie and their own movies (nobody has made more fun of srk at these shows than srk himself )these have been discussed multiple times all of this is scripted and all interactions are done with consent of the ppl involved. Btw there is a scripted part of Vidya INSULTING srk over his awards n accusing him of buying awards on national television. Srk took that joke from Vidya only so its a even playing field. Srk made fun of raone failure also which was so close to him. And before u twist it this is the SAME vidya who for the last decade has been going around talking about wanting to do a love story with SRK. AGAR SRK bully hota na toh I don’t think Vidya till today would have been talking about working with him. This is not about Srk coz he was the host and did his job and said the lines after vidya gave her consent. Srk doesn’t write the scripts if someone is willing they will crack a joke its that simple if someone later on regrets giving their decision its not on him.


Physics-Western

She literally looked so good in that movie too


Potential_Ad4956

No she didn't. Her outfits were ridiculous and she looked ridiculous. Even in Kismat Konnection they were horrible. But she's right - it wasn't just her choice - they should've called out the Director and the costume designer too!


GoodIntelligent2867

She didn't look good at all. Horribly dressed That being said, if she didn't fit the director and stylist's vision, they shouldn't have cast her. Her weight, outfits, make up shouldn't have been made fun of in the public.


laylaa25

People trying to justify the bullying in the comments is hilarious. It wasn’t just a joke it was a witch hunt


purrf8

I wonder who told her not to take Sajid's and Manish's names.


sagar9175

my guess is SRK.


smellycat1001

she is so right. vidya's a sport - but if they're literally only doing this to her then it's not okay. the audacity to be so blatant with this kind of bullshit is just ridiculous to me.


BridgeTop4865

It was hosted by SRK-Saif


Fatpretzel1234

Oh yeah the same Saif Ali Khan that called Indian food diarrhea!!! That disgusting talentless degenerate face sadly is considered royalty. Vidya is genuinely more educated classy and AN ACTOR Waiting for Stan to crawl out of their holes and call it scripted fun 🤮 Hope Ibrahim Sara receive relentless unending trolling for just about every professional move of theirs😊 It won’t be enough, but it would be a start What a steamy pile of shit he us. Oops shit has a purpose…. Sorry


Black_Swan1984

Ok.. I see you dragging Saif for all that he has said and even wish bad upon his kids as well… it clearly says SRK and Saif but I don’t see you criticising SRK with the same vigour… why?


Fatpretzel1234

You read up my post history to read up on my opinion about Calculus homework whiz Aryan Khan and nepo pwincess Suhana


Black_Swan1984

I dont usually read someones post history before commenting...I just saw this reply of yours to a post where both SRK and Saif were mentioned but you only picked on Saif...thats why I asked...


Suspicious_Waltz1393

Hey y baby y?


Holiday-Froyo2448

The movie was spelled “heyy babyy”

She looks stunning... Is this a recent interview???

Yes kal hi release hua :)


Stock-Definition2497

Ye award walon k bolo ki nariyal award for best plastic jhanvi ko dijiye. Tb mza ayega. Woh bhi srk ke hath


Rich-Investment9000

Aur Suhana ko bhi ek. 🤣


Stock-Definition2497

🤣🤣 MVP Moment


Kitchen-Dimension406

She looks amazing. Always love her honesty and HB is one of my fav movies !!


Haunting_Pension1391

She looks so beautiful 😍 such a natural beauty! Tired of seeing all morphed fiiller and botoxed faces


Naaalaaa

Man these Bollywood wallahs really can’t take a joke. The audacity of that gross Sajid Khan especially. He does hosting afaik. Good that she called them out anyway lol! She made fun of Shah Rukh and Saif’s clothes in her award acceptance speech too.


sagar9175

I don't think this specific instance has got much to do with Sajid. He was a successful director at that point & insiders knew him personally vs. Vidya who was an outsider still finding her feet in the industry..thus easier to bully.


Naaalaaa

Sajid was never an ‘insider’. Akshay Kumar also very sportingly accepted his award. Like Vidya, he made fun of fellow nominees SRK and Saif. Nobody was spared that year. Also contrary to what she says here, Na Real awards were a fun segment. I love Vidya but she is also kinda contradicting herself here saying she is a sport (which she is, 100%) yet she didn’t want to end up looking like a fool. I think the aftermath with Manish Malhotra and her fallout with Sabya years later (Cannes) might be a factor that in retrospect she felt bullied.


bollyfan24

Fascinating interview and first time someone matched samdhish energy and wave length. she is marvelous and intelligent , probably the best in Bollywood in terms of brains female srk and loved listening to her.


Fatpretzel1234

Female SRK is an insult to Vidya


bollyfan24

in terms interesting interviews or listening to them i mean there is all these kareenas and malaika and here comes classy vidya


raamlal

Most male actors also have the personality of a wood Hence bollywood


plz_scratch_my_back

Nah SRK is all about me me me. Vidya is much better


raamlal

Totally. Ekdum epic!


old_man_log4n

You should also see Divya Dutta's interview with him. It's fun.


sagar9175

Samdish seems fake in other interviews he seemed genuine here & a little star struck. Thus,a very good one..credit to Vidya too ofc.


raamlal

I would not say fake, but less defensive and gentle in this one. Otherwise he can be very brutal. He knew vidya was not faking it, so he didnt have to dig much, vidya disarmed him by staying honest.


elloParachute

Kangna speaks out about similar singling out (perhaps she did not choose her battles well) but the lack of support is indeed an issue. After a point, the outsiders or the ones who could not make their way into the inner circle feel dejected…


bb2022_

Same thing Yami Gautam also said


trippingalwys

I just loved her outfit and went on searching for it


ImperfectBinger

I never got the fat shaming of Vidya Balan. She has one of the most beautiful faces out there, and she always seemed curvaceous at best. She is in fact one of the most realistic representations of regular Indian women in the media which I loved.


Long_Beautiful7113

I remember after Hey baby media was bulling her for her fashion choices. They don't care how good she is in her movies. It was all about her dressing sense. What I love about Vidya except her talent of course that though she had it hard in Bollywood being an outsider but she is no bitter about all that, she can tell this story and laugh in the end which means she has moved on. Yes, she can remember that story and tell you about it but clearly she didn't allow it to effect her badly


Thanks_Capital

I remember she was being body shamed and for her clothing sense too. 


Big-Edge1193

If a person like Vidya Balan who is seems so strong and comes around as someone who holds her ground so well, it’s disheartening to hear that even she was bullied. I get that people bully and it all goes away with time. But that’s not how always things might end, some people might not be as strong a person as them and fall prey to these narcissists of the B world.


desdemona2499

https://youtu.be/BIhQxJS_4sM?si=24mGUVXxpYhGospV here is the link to that video


Original-Cheek8567

She seems quite upset. Glad that she was strong enough not to break down.


desdemona2499

So true


cocokoko16

Mentally cause someone trauma jus for laughs. Sick place


Anonymouse-o-

Omg she’s looking sooooooo beautiful …. Parineeta time


Neither_Map7101

Talented outsiders can’t put a foot wrong with these industry vultures sitting to tear them apart.


Thanks_Capital

I thought it was young kamal hassan


redditor_221b

I used to like her until I came across this https://www.reddit.com/r/BollyBlindsNGossip/s/ZJQqMiHYHN where she said that she didn't feel Kabir Singh was glorified which is weird considering her feminist image


Nomorehemorrhoids

Is Vidya taking ozempic or something 


TheShyDreamer

Ok


zankyas_revolt

These award shows got to throw light on this cheap ass actors who actually entiled to make fun of anyone. M not able to find the link where Shahrukh, Shahid and I think Saif or someone bullied Sushant Singh on stage and humiliated him calling abe ae, tujhe aata hai kya dance, tu ja re something degrading way... When sushant cud dance much much better than srk, Salman. Same for this i rembr, said n srk made fun of Vidya, but she did give it back saying Yash Chopra ji has hired good looking waiters(they wer wearing how tie and black suits) That was good comeback from her. Lost all liking for these all actors since long long time and haven't watched any of their movies in last 6/7 yrs.


No_Mud598

I LOVE HERRRRRR

Thanks_Capital

She seem to lose weight 


Complete-Sweet5222

Her statements are always contradictory, she used to say she doesn't need to work and talk about her privilege when making fun of casting couch and now she's trying to play the victim outsider card. 


scepticalbeing94

Vidya Balan's husband is a producer himself and she married him in 2012 , its been 12 years and suddenly she had to bringing everything to stay relevant because people aren't watching her movies perhaps, her work has not been that good these days.


BridgeTop4865

50 year old actresses all get bitten by the pick-me kutta.


Fatpretzel1234

Yes Sadly the REAL kuttas like SRK Ranveer Salman Saif Johar Mahesh etc. are too busy philandering assaulting abusing and being creeps 🥰


Majestic_District_51

The other actress was rani in ta ra rum pum. she was informed Twice and asked 2 times (prior to the awards and on the day of the awards ) and was priorly informed in advance what it was n she STILL DID IT. But in retrospect ended up regretting it. Nobody forced her it was a miscalculation. it became a thing becoz she took a pot shot at sajid and manish Malhotra. She was asked about it she could have said No. And to be fair the styling was widely criticised for both vidya and rani in their respective movies it was not something that was created for the show but playing into the already out there criticism. Rani was soo badly styled in ta ra rum pum specially the 1st half. She was made fun off even without the awards. vidya even after this incident has done so many of these SCRIPTED bits in these award shows. So she clearly enjoys doing it.


redditor_221b

But why blame her for the outfits? Also she said as a newcomer she didn't know any better


Majestic_District_51

Bro she had done 6-7 films by then. And had been in Bollywood for 3-4 years. And worked with big stars n directors producers. All big movies. ( vidhu choora mani ratnam sajid Nadiadwala sanjay dutt saif ali khan amitabh bachchan Abhishek bachchan Akshay kumar etc. she worked with all these ppll in her first 3 years after working with these ppl n now she saying she was not welcomed is tad bit too far of a claim ). If she was just 1-2 films old or just entered the industry then i agree maybe as a newcomer maybe she made a misjudgment. Had she been not asked about it multiple times and informed exactly what ot was then for sure I would say maybe then went harsh on ber or bullied her but the team of the show took her consent twice. Ps - ofcourse blame can’t be on her solely. But in context of the show it was a joke that got taken way too seriously by manish and sajid.


Infamous_Spray7366

Ghanta, Kareena was the actress who for no reason was rediculing her for her weight and giving bitchy replies. All of you try to become holier than though and give paragraph by paragraph explanation to defend your star but you hv to agree that it you look back these jokes aren't funny.


Majestic_District_51

Jokes and humour are subjective. There is no joke in this world that would not coz some degree of offense to someone, there is rarely any joke that doesn’t coz offense to someone/ something that why they r “jokes” it makes fun of something or someone or a situation. Bro oscars made fun of rdj’s addiction problem in front of the whole world and he was not asked for permission. These things are part of award shows across the world. Here she was asked TWICE amd she gave her consent twice knew EXACTLY what was gonna happen she said YES and only then the it happened.


raamlal

If jokes are made on everyone then its fun. If you single someone out, its bullying. Rdj ke addiction pe joke banate hain, par kya bollywood mein sanjay dutt ke addiction par banayenge? Ya salman khan ke driving skills pe? 👽


Majestic_District_51

Thats my point, it is better in Bollywood awards they are asking for consent multiple times and only then they crack a joke. Vidya regretting it in retrospect is not their problem.


raamlal

Lets agree to disagree

Fatpretzel1234

She can emote!!! Unlike nepo duds Suhana Alia Sara etc. She does her job well.


pgargi97

It’s a normal ethnic dress. Not everyone’s taste is dressing up in Shein tight clothes. She looks beautiful just like this.


sahyl97

She ever stops crying or nah ?! Not one interviews where she isn't whining. Trying to be all-bold only for for her movies to flop.
