Actor Vidya Balan will host kitty parties as a promotional activity for her forthcoming film, Ghanchakkar. She will host at least three such kitty parties in cities like Chandigarh, Delhi and Lucknow.

“We came up with the idea when Vidya and I overheard a conversation that a bunch of women were having during a kitty party. They were discussing their marriage, how lazy their partners could be and they were sometimes forgetful also. We immediately knew that we wanted to throw these parties and talk to the women about their lazy lads,” says the film’s director Rajkumar Gupta.

In the film, Vidya plays a loud Punjabi housewife, a clear deviation from her earlier roles like Vidya Bagchi in Kahaani (2012) and her role in Paa (2009). Her husband’s role in the film is essayed by actor Emraan Hashmi.
