The actress while shooting for the film in Hyderabad had to enact a scene in which she had to actually smoke. Since Vidya had never smoked before, she began to feel uneasy after her fourth cigarette and started coughing. This halted the shoot of the film for a few minutes.

The film Dirty Picture is one of the most awaited films of the year as it is based on the life of southern siren Silk Smitha. It focuses on how an actress who provided entertainment to millions died a lonely and a tragic death.
Vidya Balan, who essays Silk Smitha, is pushing her boundaries to play this role. She is not only experimenting with the costumes which will change her image but is also making additional efforts on the personal front to be able to do justice to the character. The director also wants the scenes in the movie to look realistic which is probably why he insisted on “ the non-smoker” Vidya to smoke cigarettes in reality.
