Despite having dengue, Vidya Balan starts prepping up for Kamala Das biopic!

Vidya Balan has been learning the nuances of Malayalam diction from actress Sreedhanya for the last couple of months, to prepare for her role as the Malayali poet and writer Kamala Das aka Madhavikutty in director Kamal's biopic on her. 

But though she had been diagnosed with dengue on September 15 and that had initially put a halt on that, now the actress is back on track. She has been exchanging voice notes on WhatsApp with Sreedhanya so she doesn’t miss out on her lessons and reading several books written by the poetess and writer herself.  

Now that's what you call dedication!
