Vidya Balan on Neeyat
Talking about the film, Vidya said in a statement, as quoted by ANI, “In Neeyat, Detective Mira Rao is not your everyday, classic detective which is what made it great fun for me. Also, not only did I get a chance to sink my teeth into an unusual and quirky character but I also got to work with a powerful set of co-actors. This film is my second outing with Anu after Shakuntala Devi and my fourth collaboration with Vikram, Abundantia Entertainment and Prime Video and I can only say that I have had the most amazing time working with them to make this film. Last but not the least, I'm supremely delighted to be back in theatres with the release of Neeyat and am waiting with bated breath for audience reactions.”
Neeyat marks the reunion of Anu Menon and Vidya, who previously collaborated on Shakuntala Devi, the biopic of the mathematics genius. Neeyat will release in theatres on July 7.
Interestingly, Vidya has only been seen in Prime Video films, such as Shakuntala Devi (2020), Sherni and most recently, Suresh Triveni's Jalsa last year. Neeyat will be her long-awaited return to the big screen after four years.
