Queen of the 80s: From early 1983 to the summer of 1993: The undisputed Queen of Bollywood: Sridevi




 

Sridevi's chiffon saris from Chandni (1989)



The prevailing memory of Sridevi in Chandni would be her innumerable outfits and ensembles in white... But for a brief moment, Sridevi appears in this chiffon sari looking effortlessly elegant and immeasurably beautiful during a song sequence. 

Yash Chopra's musical made a seismic shift in the way Bollywood movies were being made at the time. Worth watching, and re-watching again. And again. 

The gorgeous rom com and musical, Chandni (1989).
