OTTplay Awards 2022 - Vidya Balan.

Vidya Balan was awarded best actor female in a film (jury) at the recently held OTTplay Awards and Conclave 2022. The actress bagged the award for her movie Jalsa. However, Vidya made an adorable goof-up at the awards show. She starting giving her acceptance speech for Sherni.

Upon receiving the award, Vidya said that Sherni changed her as a person. She also thanked the director of the film Amit Masurkar.

“Sherni is very special for me. Every film is special to everyone who’s part of it but I never thought I’ll do a film like Sherni because I’m not very environment conscious in that sense. My heart doesn’t go out to animals like most other people. This, however, changed something in me and for that I’ll forever be grateful to Amit Masurkar. He’s a man who walks the talk. If I get any compliment or appreciation for this film, it really belongs to that man,” Vidya said.

Just as she started thanking the other team members from Sherni, Vidya got to know that she actually received the award for her performance in Jalsa opposite Shefali Shah. First confused, the actress then saw the screen and laughed at her little goof-up.

The host Maniesh Paul assured Vidya that the award for both Sherni and Jalsa belong to her. He also spoke exactly what everyone in the room and watching her felt – that she might have received an award for Sherni itself because she was good in that role too.

The actress then spoke about Jalsa and shared, “This is my first award for Jalsa. I would like to share it with my favourite actor Shefali Shah.” She ended her speech by giving a flying kiss to her husband Siddharth Roy Kapur.
