Sridevi in Farishtay (1991): 80s costumes in Bollywood



Sridevi as a pari (fairy) in Farishtay from a song... 


Before director Anil Sharma went on to make the super hit Gaddar, he made this... travesty Farishtay in 1991. Wasting the talents of an otherwise stellar cast, this mish-mash will test any Sridevi fan. And it does.

Sridevi looked cute, especially in her songs but otherwise, yet another highly miss-able film. 

The movie was produced by Sattee Shourie. The film was in production for years - there's an image of Sridevi at the launch of the film back in 1987! She's barely in the film except in a few songs and appears late in the film. 

A fan at the Facebook page posted, "I was going to throw the VHS tape, just waiting and waiting  and waiting for Sridevi to appear..."

Lol. Yeah.
