Are we overexplaining? Its for the new international fans of Sridevi from around the globe who are discovering her thanks to OTT platforms. 

A lot of Johnny-come-lately-s when it comes to Sridevi, esp after English Vinglish

Sridevi and Mithun Chakraborthy in garlands: Event for the film Guru

Sridevi and Mithun at an event circa 1987. Also in the audience, Sridevi's younger sister Srilatha. Anyone know what event / what occasion this was? 

Pls no one daft enough to say it was their wedding - cause it wasn't! 

It's either the mahurat/launch of Guru or audio launch or a party to celebrate the success of the film as the cast and crew of Guru are in the pics including Shakti Kapoor, 

Or was it something else?!! Date/location/place??

Sridevi and Srilatha: Sisters in Arms

Sridevi and her only, younger sister Srilatha. The two shared a unique and close-knit bond and were inseparable throughout the 1980s. While getting photographed for the magazines of the time by ace photographer A.V. Bhaskar, Sridevi roped in her sis for a shot. Much to the surprise of both, the images appeared on the cover of Tamil tabloids and the series of shots were in print that year (circa 1989-1990).

We have so much to ask and talk to Srilatha about Sridevi - esp her early years.
