MUMBAI, (IANS) – Acclaimed actress Vidya Balan has become a social media sensation thanks to her engaging “reels” on the platform, which she says she started making about two years ago and is having fun making them.

Talking about her tryst with making reels on social media and going viral with them, Vidya said, “It has been about two years, and I was shooting in London for ‘Neeyat’, and I had a lot of time, and that’s why one day, I just decided that my manager had been telling me, ‘Why don’t we do reels’.”

After her first reel video went viral and received love from her fans, Vidya found herself hooked. An avid social media user, she consistently entertains her followers with her clips.

“I would do one reel in one or two months, and then she said we have the time to shoot a reel, and I was just having fun. After it went viral, I realized that I did what I enjoy, and people are also enjoying it. So, I started doing it regularly. I am just having fun, honestly,” said the actress, who boasts a following of over 9.4 million on Instagram.

Vidya was last seen on screen in the romantic comedy ‘Do Aur Do Pyaar’, directed by Shirsha Guha. It also stars Pratik Gandhi, Ileana D’Cruz, and Sendhil Ramamurthy.
