Imagine a make-up girl who became an extra and then the most wanted heroine of the early 80s.
Chronicling the meteoric rise and steep fall of the erstwhile screen sensation SILK (Played by Vidya Balan), "The Dirty Picture" is set against the colorful and entertaining backdrop of the fierce male-dominated South-Indian film industry of the 80s.
The quintessential siren, Silk, knew her audiences, and it didn't seem like anything would stop the ambitious starlet, till it did, in the form of unrequited love.
To the world, she was the queen of sensuality. But at heart, she was just another woman yearning for love in a ruthless world.
Balaji and Milan Luthria team up again after their smash hit, "Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai," to create a humorous yet poignant entertainer, which is already in the news for being the most keenly anticipated musical drama of the year.
