  • Vidya Balan on small screen - again!
Actress Vidya Balan found it exciting to return to her roots - the small screen, to promote her forthcoming entertainer "Bobby Jasoos".
 
She made an appearance on BIG MAGIC's comedy show "Ajab Gajab Ghar Jamai" to spread buzz about her movie, in which she plays a detective.
 
For Vidya, who started her career by playing a part in TV show "Hum Paanch", shooting a cameo for "Ajab Gajab..." turned out to be a fun experience.
 
"It was exciting to act on the small screen once again after a very long time. It brought back many memories for me and now has made this show special. It was like coming back home since this is where I started my acting career," Vidya said in a statement.
 
Ever since the National Award winning actress made it big on the silver screen, she has made various appearances on the television to promote her films. Her latest appearance can be seen in a special episode of "Ajab Gajab..." Friday.
 
Veteran actress Himani Shivpuri, who features in the show, appreciated Vidya’s sense of comedy.
 
"The episode is a fun one and Vidya was extremely sporting through it," she added.
