Salman Khan and Sridevi in Chaand Kaa Tukdaa (1994)

Salman Khan acted with Sridevi in the (awful) films Chaand Kaa Tukdaa and Chandra Mukhi. Despite looking incredibly good together in the innumerable stills that you'll find online and, obviously here on this site, nothing can save their collab!  A complete career low point for both superstars, they spoke about the films being genuinely awful years after its release. The songs are a fun watch... that's about it! And we say this as hardcore Sridevi fans who put up with just about anything related to Sri! It was that odd time in Bollywood where the top tier superstar based films were segueing into what stardom is now; a more polished product with a tight script and schedule and corporatisation/organisation...  Back then, whoaa, it's a miracle anyone completed any film! Scripts written on set, dialogues being made ad hoc. Just... bizarre. 










QUOTABLE QUOTES


Sridevi, "Salman is a gentleman. And a very genuine one at that. Who says he is temperamental? He is down to earth and sweet."
Cine Blitz, December 1996

Salman Khan, "Sridevi is the most amazing woman I've ever worked with."
