23-Sep

1995 - Geeky struggler: She was 17 when she played the nerdy Radhika Mathur in the TV show, Hum Paanch. Little work followed with music videos, ads and a Bengali film, but she faded into oblivion for 10 years before Parineeta happened.

Actor Vidya Balan’s Bollywood journey may have been a bumpy ride but she made ‘dirty’ look good. The past year proved noteworthy for her both professionally and personally. The game changer Kahaani released and she tied the knot with UTV head Siddharth Roy Kapoor. Here
2012 - the star: By now, Vidya turned into a star courtesy her multiple award winning performance in The Dirty Picture followed by Kahaani. She had become the epitome of the Indian woman and the face of change in Bollywood. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Vidya Balan turns 35
2011 - Sari woman: She was bored with criticism for her clothes and her weight, and she self-confessedly took “to the sari with a vengeance”. She donned it at events, appearances, everywhere and made her own style statement. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Vidya Balan turns 35
2009 - Curly hair lady: Two of her films had flopped by now, but she reinvented herself as the mother of a progeric child in Paa. Her curly hair look and subtle dresses went down well with critics, who were waiting for her to pick a wrong dress.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Vidya Balan turns 35
2008 - Style disaster: Her Abu-Sandeep suit at an awards ceremony this year was slammed by Malhotra, who sarcastically called her the ‘desi Paris Hilton’. She was even jokingly announced as the worst dressed celeb at the gala by SRK. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Vidya Balan turns 35
2008 - Fashion faux pas: She had five hits by now, but she was drawing constant flak from her detractors for her dressing sense. Her Heyy Baby look was panned so much that she blamed designer Manish Malhotra for styling her ghastly. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Vidya Balan turns 35
1995 - Geeky struggler: She was 17 when she played the nerdy Radhika Mathur in the TV show, Hum Paanch. Little work followed with music videos, ads and a Bengali film, but she faded into oblivion for 10 years before Parineeta happened. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: Vidya Balan turns 35
