Mumbai:
Friendships in the film industry are mostly transitory. And the same can be said of fallouts. We hear Vidya Balan and Sujoy Ghosh, who were not on talking terms for a year, patched up a few days ago. To raise a toast to their renewed friendship, the actress has not only agreed to be a part of Sujoy's upcoming production TE3N, she also discussed another project with him, suggest sources.
"Sujoy and Vidya bumped into each other at a coffee shop recently, but there was no awkwardness between them. They decided to bury the hatchet and got talking. During the course of their chat, they even discussed a couple of projects. Sujoy later arranged a meeting between Vidya and TE3N director Ribhu Dasgupta after she showed interest in the script," adds a source. (Also Read: Vidya Balan Describes Herself as a 'Greedy Actress')
