The actor was recognised when she briefly unveiled to speak to her father during the intermission, claims Mumbai Mirror.
A fan is reported to have shouted "Vidya Balan" as he passed by her during the interval, prompting audiences to gather around the star.
Balan was then forced to miss the second half of the film at the Gaiety Galaxy theatre in the Mumbai suburbs.
The incident mirrors a scene from the Milan Luthria-directed project, where Balan's character goes to the cinema to watch the first-day screening of the debut film.
Bollywood star Mallika Sherawat is known to wear a burka during international travel. Musician-turned-actor Himesh Reshammiya ran into controversy after disguising himself under a burka to visit a shrine in Ajmer.
The Dirty Picture is out now on general release.
