Vidya Balan releases first poster of Begum Jaan and she looks fierce in it!

Mumbai: ‘Begum Jaan’, an adaption of Bengali hit film ‘Rajkahini’ by Srijit Mukherji, sees Vidya in a never-seen-before avatar. The powerhouse of talent looks intriguingly intense as she dons the role of a madame in a brothel.
