Jaya Prada with Sridevi in Devatha (1982)

Jaya Prada and Sridevi in the Telugu smash Devatha (1982), which of course was remade in Hindi as Tohfa the following year and released in early 1984.

Rivals in life, sisters on screen, the tumultuous frenemies of the film fraternity made for interesting gossip. It was all very high-school of course, but then you realise, well, they were teenagers back then and it was teen behaviour--except the squabbles  was played out in national tabloids. 

With age and maturity, they did bury the hatchet - thankfully, not in the other's back. 

How lovely they were - just classic Indian beauties on the big screen.

The biggest Bollywood Premiere of ALL time: Amitabh Bachchan, Sridevi, Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit

The entire Hindi film industry attended the lavish premiere of Roop ki Rani Choron ka Raja back in 1993. You name 'em, they were there, but all eyes were on that rare moments when Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit were in the vicinity of each other--nearly unheard of during the peak of their respective careers. 

These images went 'viral' before it was a term. Dozens of pics in the archive here

Sridevi with Shatrughan Sinha in Sherni


The baritone one turns 79! Actor turned politician Shatrughan Sinha turns 79 today-- a vocal supporter of Sridevi from the early days, he has praised her to the skies since they were costars in 1988 in the Hindi film Sherni! We wish the actor well on his birthday. 

 

Sridevi in Justice Chaudhury (1983)

Sridevi in Justice Chaudhury (1983), a remake of Telugu movie Justice Chowdary (1982), which also stars Sridevi in the same role! 

The 80s pink salwaar. Sridevi didn't always love making a remake, as she's famously stated before, but enjoy its success and reach of pan-Indian cinema.
