Biography
Vidya was born in Palghat, Kerala, India. Her family consists of her dad, P.R.
Balan, who is the Vice-President of ETC Channel; mom - a home-maker, and an elder
sister, Priya, who is married to Kedar. She also has an aunt by the name of Raji
Raju.
The Balan family re-located to live at Road No. 11, near Ambedkar Garden,
Chembur, Bombay, when Vidya was very young. She studied in St. Anthony's Convent
School, and thereafter in St. Xavier's College from where she obtained a degree
in Sociology. She then went on to obtain a Masters degree in Sociology from
Bombay University.
She also studied and performed in Prithvi Theaters' workshops. Due to tradition
of most Tamil-Iyer families, Vidya and her Priya learned Carnatic dance form
during their early childhood days, but Vidya opted out as the dance classes took
place early on Sunday mornings
