Parineeti, which was directed by the late Pradeep Sarkar and produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, was Vidya Balan’s Bollywood acting debut.

When Parineeta was first released in 2005, it was met with both critical and financial success. Shantanu Moitra’s soundtrack and Saif Ali Khan, Vidya Balan, and Sanjay Dutt’s performances are what people remember most about the movie.
