Vidya Balan
Vidya Balan is an Indian actress. She has established a successful career in Hindi cinema and is the recipient of several awards, including a National Film Award, five Filmfare Awards, and five Screen Awards, and was awarded the Padma Shri by the Government of India in 2014. She is known for portraying strong female protagonists and has been acknowledged in the media for pioneering a change in the concept of a Hindi film heroine. Her notable films include the drama Paa (2009), the black comedy Ishqiya (2010), the semi-biographical thriller No One Killed Jessica (2011), the biopic The Dirty Picture (2011), and the thriller Kahaani (2012).

Vidya Balan is an Indian film actress whose work has consistently broken several stereotypes that are expected of actresses in India. I successfully took her biography to FA-status in December 2012. The article featured on the main page on her wedding day and was viewed over 90k times. Recently, I was able to take a listing of her accolades and her film roles to FL-status, the former with the help of User:FrB.TG. This is my first featured topic nomination, and I hope I am doing it right. Cheers! -- KRIMUK  90  ✉  13:48, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Support – Seems to meet the criteria. -- FrankBoy (Buzz) 23:48, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Support - Main article and the lists all seem to be well-maintained. The grouping is logical and comprehensive. Can't see any reason this shouldn't be an FT. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 08:29, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
