Vidya signs a film with John

Technorati Profile
Whether Bipasha Basu approves of it or not is yet to be seen. But, Vidya Balan has signed a David Dhawan comedy, Hook Ya Crook with Bips’s boyfriend John Abraham.

It seems Vidya has developed an affinity towards comedies. While Vishal Bhardwaj’s Ishqya will mark Vidya’s entry in the comedy genre , Hook Ya Crook will be her second.

In Ishqya , Vidya plays up the uncle (Naseeruddin Shah) against his nephew, Arshad Warsi. Hook Ya Crook was to earlier star Telugu star Siddharth with Amrita Rao. But they were dropped and Vidya and John came on board.

After Salaam-e-Ishq , Vidya drops her sedate saree-clad image again for Hook ... Says David, “I was recently watching Vidya in Parineeta and I think she is one of the most beautiful girls we’ve had in the industry. Just working with her would be a pleasure. She has such lovely eyes and a truly Indian face.”
