Is Vidya Balan still in love with Shahid Kapoor?

The actress apparently told TV producer Ekta Kapoor not to promote ex-boyfriend Shahid Kapur's Muasam on her TV show, fuelling rumours that she still has a soft spot for him 

There have been reports that Vidya Balan has been telling TV producers, including Balaji's Ekta Kapoor, not to promote ex-beau Shahid Kapoor's next release Mausam, in her TV serial, Bade Achche Lagte Hai. Does that mean the pretty Ishqiyan actress hasn't forgotten Shahid despite being in a steady relationship with one of the heads of a production house?

Says a source, "Shahid and Vidya became close during the shooting of Aziz Mirza's Kismet Konnection and shared some close moments together. But it was for a brief period of time and since then both have moved on with their respective partners. Or so one thought. But from her latest move it appears that Vidya has not moved on. There have been stories of her telling her Dirty Pictures producer Ekta Kapoor not to promote Shahid's next film Mausam on Ekta's serial, Bade Achche Lagte Hain. Why would a star of Vidya's calibre and repute do such a thing unless she was still in love with Shahid? One wonders if there's trouble in her relationship with her current beau, whom Vidya has been dating for over a year? It appears as if Vidya is still holding grudges aganst Shahid, while the actor has moved on and only wishes her well."


However a source from Balaji has another version. "Ekta's decision not to promote Mausam on her serial Bade Achche Lagte Hainwas not personal or anything to do with Vidya. Ekta is a professional and was very clear right from the beginning that only her film Dirty Pictures would be promoted first in Balaji's flagship television serials. Promoting upcoming releases through TV serials has always been one of the marketing strategies of Balaji but this time Ekta wants Dirty Picturesto come first (before other's films) on Bade Achche Lagte Hainas it's one of the top-ranking popular serials today. Vidya is a very dignified and balanced girl who is in a happy space today. She is a professional who would never interefere in someone's work. Nor does she need to resort to such gimmicks."

So who then is spreading the rumour?
