Vidya Balan reached the late director Pradeep Sarakar's house to pay her last respect on Friday morning. The director passed away at 67 in the wee hours of Friday.

The actor was dressed in a white-salwar kameez and wore black shades. Vidya started her career in hindi films with Pradeep Sarkar's 'Parineeta' (2005), which was a screen adaptation of the prolific Bengali writer Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's short story titled 'Parineeta'. Saif Ali Khan, and Sanjay Dutt played important characters in the movie.

Apart from the debutante Vidya, 'Parineeta' is also remembered for its timeless melodies. Songs like 'Piya bole piyu bole', and ' Yeh hawayein' of this movie still top the charts of listeners.

As per reports, Pradeep has been on dialysis for a long.
