Vidya In Love With Metro

Yesterday 'Kahaani' fame Vidya Balan came to the city for the
publicity of her Kolkata-based
Hindi movie
'Kahaani' and won the heart of the city with her frankness. She said,
'Ami Kolkatar meye' and recited Sukumar Roy's nonsense limerick
'Shunte pelam Posta giye' with laugh.
Vidya arrived at Uttam Kumar Metro Station for the publicity of her
new film slated for release on 9 March and asked the city-dwellers to
watch her film.
For 4 days, shooting of her film 'Kahaani' was held at Uttam Kumar and
Kalighat Metro Station. So, she decided to start the publicity with
Metro station. Vidya is thankful to the Metro authority for the
co-operation during shooting periods and expressed her deep desire to
be the Brand Ambassador of Kolkata Metro. The GM of Metro also
expressed his happiness to get Vidya as their Brand Ambassador.
