‘Dedh Ishqiya’ sans the essence of Vidya Balan?

The talk about ‘Ishqiya’ is incomplete without the mention of Vidya Balan oozing raw sensuous beauty in the flick and sure enough, Vidya bagged in as many as four film awards for her performance in the flick. Now, the announcement of ‘Dedh Ishqiya’, the sequel of the flick, without Vidya in it was something which we could not digest easily but this happens to be a fact.
It seems that the makers did not have any role for Vidya in the new script where Naseeruddin Shah and Arshad Warsi continue their parts and this time they will fall in love with two different girls. Rumors have it that Madhuri Dixit has been approached for one lead but she has demanded a very high fee.
Vidya, who is in news for her role based on Silk Smitha in her forthcoming ‘Dirty Picture’ also attended the party where Vishal Bhardwaj announced his ‘Ishqiya 2’.
