Once upon a time’s next door girl Vidya Balan is changing her image too fast. She will not only playing a ‘shocking’ role of Silk Smitha in ‘Dirty Picture’, but will also be using cosmetic stuffing to increase the girth of her hips for the role. Vidya, who was initially supposed to gain and then lose weight for her role as the yesteryear item girl, had later backtracked. She had said she couldn’t gain weight and then lose the same fast enough. So, the buzz is that the actress would have to use prosthetics to increase her bust line for part of the film.

Since she may need some weight for the hips as well, she may use some add-on. In fact, Ekta Kapoor has given the charge of making Vidya Balan look voluptuous to AD Shahana and make up person Vikram dada. While Vidya after shedding her kilos and the 'plump' tag is probably in no mood to gain extra fat and the shoot starts May 30, the filmmaker had to resort to desperate measures. Anyway, the actress can take help from her colleague Shahid Kapoor who used such cosmetic stuffing to look rounded in the recent past.
