“Ever since I've started my career as a film photographer, most of my shoots I try achieving the best lighting on shoot itself, rely as less as possible on the post-treatment of the pictures. With Vidya, all the more reasons, because she just doesn't like her images to be re-touched, she's completely comfortable in her own skin, she doesn't want to be liquified or made slimmer in her pictures, she always insists even with magazine shoots to tell the editorials, agencies etc, that we just colour correct the pictures and share, without any retouching. With Vidya, we hardly ever retouch any images, we just colour correct to get the tones right and it's good to go, it's always easy with her. For calendar shoots especially, we ensure trying something unique everytime, only if the background requires some retouching, flooring needs cleaning, or colour correction needs to be done for something like leaves or anything in the background etc, we don't however, touch-up or over retouch any image of hers."
Celebrity photographer Atul Kasbekar called Vidya the epitome of Indian beauty. He said, "I have rarely photographed anyone who is so much in tune with herself as Vidya Balan is. As a photographer it is refreshing to see someone have an inner content glow while looking effortlessly elegant and gorgeous without any external aid like photoshop or even touch up her images to suit a certain standard of defined beauty. She is the epitome of Indian beauty."
Talking about her professional life Vidya was last seen in the critically acclaimed film ‘Sherni’. She will be next spotted in an untitled web series based on the life of former Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi.
