Talking about her tryst with making reels on social media and going viral with them, Vidya told IANS: “It has been about two years, and I was shooting in London for ‘Neeyat’, and I had a lot of time, and that’s why one day, I just decided that my manager had been telling me, ‘Why don’t we do reels’.”

I am just having fun, honestly,” said the actress, who boasts a following of over 9.4 million on Instagram.
