The most comprehensive fan blog dedicated to India's most beautiful and greatest actress of all-time (in our humble opine!), Sridevi. Sridevi aka Sreedevi, ruled Indian cinema (with awesome performances in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi films) in a career spanning 50 incredible years featuring 266 films. Born in Sivakasi on August 13 1963, her untimely and tragic death on February 24, 2018 left a nation in mourning. In our hearts, she'll forever be, the eternal Queen of Bollywood.

Sridevi in pink: Classic 80s fashion, makeup for Cine Blitz
Cine Blitz cover with Sridevi: Film city cover with Sridevi, Shahrukh Khan and... Kishen Kumar!
Cine Blitz cover with Sridevi: Film City magazine cover with Sridevi, Shahrukh Khan and... Kishen Kumar!
Now, magazines would never share images - exclusivity is key.
The Cine Blitz cover is easily one of Sridevi's best - from August 1992. Sridevi was 29, easily India's biggest actress.
The Kishen Kumar landing on the cover is... amusing. And funnier still, this is not the first time he's shared magazine cover real estate with Sridevi - back in February 1993, Gulshan Kumar, ipso facto, T Series bought the cover space of Cine Blitz to launch Kishen Kumar - as his film Aaja Meri Jaan was about to hit the screens. Awful film, but fantastic music with superb singing by the late great S.P.Balasubraminiam.
More of the Sridevi cover shoot in the archive here.

Sridevi and NTR on the cover of Sunday magazine
Wow, there was a time in Indian cinema history when Sridevi was on the cover of a magazine and the editors thought not to even name her!! Just NTR "with heroine!"
Well, back then Sridevi was just 19, her famous co-star was 60 - and making headlines as he jumped from cinema to the political bandwagon, cashing in on his wild popularity in Andhra.
They say star power is power; well, political power is real power in India. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Sridevi's glamorous cover shoot outtakes from the early 90s
