Vidya Balan: Even though she had just one release this year in the form of Kahaani, Vidya Balan proved that The Dirty Picture wasn't going to be followed by a dry spell. She put in a pitch-perfect performance as the feisty Vidya Bagchi, a pregnant wife looking for her missing husband in the thriller set in Kolkata's by-lanes. Plus, there was her lavani item number Mala Jau De in Ferarri Ki Sawaari.
