Bollywood actress Vidya Balan, who considers Kolkata as her second home, returned to the city today to shoot for her next film, Te3n.

Produced by Sujoy Ghosh, the Hindi film is the first movie for which the doors of the Victorian-era Writers’ Buildings have been opened for shooting.

Balan, 37, was seen shooting with actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui inside the brick-red edifice, where megastar Amitabh Bachchan will also come on Friday to shoot. “I wanted to shoot inside this building for a long time. Now this wish has been fulfilled,” Balan told reporters. Besides Parineeta, the superhit Kahaani was shot in the city.

Directed by Ribhu Dasgupta, Te3n will release next year.
