Vidya Balan, Sujoy Ghosh start new Kahaani from March, but Te3n keeps them busy till then

Actor Vidya Balan, who is currently shooting with Amitabh Bachchan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui for Te3n, is also busy preparing for the shoot of Sujoy Ghosh's sequel of Kahaani.

Talking about how the team of Te3n makes her nostalgic, Vidya said:

"We shot for Te3n and in the film, I have a special appearance but it was still fun because Sujoy produced the film and I went back to Kolkata for the shoot. Plus, the team was more or less the same."

Ribhu (Dasgupta) is a very interesting director, and of course Mr Bachchan and Nawaz, so it was a good team and I think that was some sort of a preparation for me to get back into Kahaani."

Vidya, who has often claimed that Bengal is her second home, had to reiterate it again when a journalist mistook her for being from Bengal, perhaps due to her popular Bengali roles in Parineeta and Kahaani. She said:

"I'm from Kerala, I'm born and brought up here. But I do consider Bengal my second home."

After numerous reports of the sequel being shelved and delayed, Sujoy this month clarified that the film was definitely on and was in pre-production stages. About working on the sequel to her 2012 hit film, Vidya said:

"I'm very excited to say the least. We start shooting next month and that's all I'm allowed to say because Sujoy Ghosh will slit my throat otherwise. Yes, I'm looking forward to shooting again for Kahaani with Sujoy."

Vidya had bagged the Filmfare Award for best actress and numerous other awards for Kahaani.
