Tohfa (1984): Sridevi and Jeetendra's blockbuster

Sridevi and Jeetendra in Tohfa (1984).

Personally, loved the song Gori tere, ang ang main... sung by the greats Kishore Kumar and Aasha Bhosle... a bit more than Nainon main sapna... 

The movie was the BIGGEST hit of 1984, putting the numbers of Himmatwala (also a blockbuster!) to shame! 

Chandni's mellow yellow saris: Not just white for Sridevi

Of the 63 or so ensembles, saris, salwars and wowsa wardrobe looks Sridevi sported in and as Chandni, most people remember her predominantly in white in the film - as this luminescent Goddess on the big screen. This was back in 1989 and Indian fashion at its peak. Sridevi worked every look, colour and style in the movie. Some of our other fan favourite looks were more of this sun-kissed yellow. 

Fact of the matter is, Sridevi looked good in every colour.

Sridevi on stage: Morni

 

The photograph, next to the the ai sharpened version of the same image... which doesn't look like Sridevi but according to the app, its close enough!! 

Sridevi wearing her favourite all gold ghaghra choli from Aaja Raadha ko Shaam - but the song she's performing here is Morni, baaga ma bole... 

How do I know this?! I was there in the audience... #Blessed!
