The actress, who already had a Twitter and Instagram account but was not much active on them, made her Facebook debut ahead of the release of her film "Kahaani 2: Durga Rani Singh".
"Its exciting to be on Facebook. I like 'the here & now ' of it all. I like the moment I launched the page, people began to write in questions..I am ready for that real time interaction," Vidya said in a statement.
"Kahaani 2: Durga Rani Singh" is the sequel to the 2012 Sujoy Ghosh-directed thriller "Kahaani".
