8. Roop ki Rani, Choron ka Raja (1993)
9. Chandra Mukhi (1993)
10. Chaand kaa Tukdaa (1994)
11. Mom (2017)

And this doesn't even include her Tamil, Telugu or Malayalam films. If anyone would like to help out with that, pls list below!

Shot in just 30 days, when Sridevi was 15-16, this thriller was a surprise hit as a film on a serial killer with Tamil film industry's definitive leading man was unprecedented. Kamal Haasan went on to win one of his many (many!) Best Actor awards.
