"I have enjoyed the success my work has brought me. Some might say I haven’t really struggled to be successful. I think it is my perspective that is utopian. My state of mind is positive and peaceful. And I dare to dream"
~ Vidya Balan

"Our city has been ravaged by the monsoon. There's mayhem and disorder every where. Lives have been lost and property destroyed."
~ Vidya Balan

"My attitude towards the tragedy has been mixed - on the one hand, I have utmost faith. On the other hand, I question the powers above. Property is replaceable, life is not. Why have innocents died? I have asked myself this question again and again. It's when a tragedy of this scale that has no apparent reason occurs that I wonder how I can continue to look at the brighter side of life... The answer eludes me."
~ Vidya Balan

"I am extremely spiritual. Spirituality, for me, is unmoving faith in the force above. Though I have firm faith in God, I refuse to follow meaningless rituals. And I am certainly not superstitious. I believe there is one supreme power, a governing force that rules the world. I derive my strength from that force. It could be a manifestation of the sun or the moon. I call it God."
~ Vidya Balan

"Even in times of adversity, I believe everything that happens, happens for the best. I am a die-hard optimist. People say this bent of mind is fatalistic but I don't think so. There's a light at the end of every tunnel. Every moment I think God is around me, there's never any reason to fear. I have never slotted things as good and bad - they are always good and not so-good. I believe we should make the most of what we have."
~ Vidya Balan

"I have enjoyed the success my work has brought me. Some might say I haven't really struggled to be successful. I think it is my perspective that is utopian. My state of mind is positive and peaceful. And I dare to dream."

"I must say Mumbai is a relatively safe city for women. They can and they do deal with hooliganisn when they have to be. For years I was train commuter in Mumbai. And I was a victim of eve-teasing a lot many times. There have been instances when I've slapped men and screamed at them for staring or misbehaving.I was warned against retaliation. But I think if male aggression isn't nipped in the bud, they finally gather the courage to get worse in their behaviour. Societal fear is so large that women keep quiet when they're subjected to indecent behaviour. Not me. When I commuted by train I'd pull up men for staring at me. As a woman you instinctively know a man's intention by the way he shakes your hand."
~ Vidya Balan

"Neither of my first two Malayalam films got completed, and I walked out of the third, a Tamil film, because I was not comfortable. I was replaced in another Tamil film with the excuse that I could not act. They made me feel ugly to the point where I was scared to look in the mirror. In retrospect I thank God, and by God's grace today the going is good."
~ Vidya Balan
