How old is Vidya Balan?

While most actresses shy away from revealing their true ages, Vidya Balan isn't one of them. The actress recently revealed that she was 36 years old. “I don’t think it’s only about actresses. I think we are a youth obsessed society... the pressure on women to remain eternally young is much more. But I say I am a proud 36-year-old,” the Kahaani actress said.

The National Award winning actress said that women get worried because “desirability is often associated with age”. But she added that “age is just a number really (and) we should not give anymore importance than that”.

She was also mystified with the universal obsession about box office numbers. 
“I don’t understand numbers... as long as I know that my films are doing well, I am happy. If the film is not doing well its makes me sad,” said the actress, who last played a victim of domestic violence in Hamari Adhuri Kahani”.
