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 and Anil Kapoor: On a film set in the early 90s
 |
Sridevi and Anil Kapoor on the sets of... possibly Main Tera Dushman
Sridevi had an extended cameo in the film. Looks like Anil Kapoor dropped in on the set. Or he didn't complete the film and Sunny Deol took over....
To be confirmed...
Sridevi and Anil Kapoor in Amsterdam for Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja: 90s song and dance routine shot in Europe
From a song that ended up on the cutting room floor, 'Main Ek Sone Ki Murat Hoon', adorable Sridevi antics from the lengthy film Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja. With co-star Anil Kapoor. From what we've seen so far, the song looks super cute! Shame it didn't make final cut.

Sridevi with Jeetendra in Himmatwala (1983): Sridevi's first Bollywood blockbuster!
HIMMATWALA (1983)
She was a rough diamond and this film was replete with rough edges. But still, this Madras family drama cum taming of the shrew was a commercial blockbuster which put Sridevi firmly on the map.
Flaring nostrils and with a whip in hand, the swim-suited Thunder Thighs drew massive sighs from the masses. During the Ta-thaiya-ta-thaiya number, she had the audience literally drowning the song with wolf-whistles at her jhatkas amongst the matkas.
But she was always more than just a sex doll. A Niagara of energy, she had a jazzy insouciance. Moreover, she played with a child's ease with an awesome array of expressions.
Sridevi: "After the failure of Solva Saal (co-starring Amol Palekar) when I was doing Himmatwala, to be honest, I was not at all interested. Matlab [I mean], i was like Solva Saal is a disaster, now I can never make it in Hindi cinema'. In fact, when Jeetuji agreed to work with me, I was shocked that he had agreed to work with a flop heroine. Though my character in Himmatwala is of a very loud and proud girl, I was unusually quiet on the sets. For one, I was not confident of my making it big. Two, there were all these heavy-weights like Amjad Khanji, Kader Khanji, Shakti Kapoor and Jeetuji, who I had to do scenes with (during Solva Saal, the whole unit had been from the south itself). My feeling was like… jo pehle din school main bacchi jaati hai na [like when a girl goes to school on her first day], like that. Once or twice Jeetuji even asked me, 'Aren't you interested in working in Hindi films? Why are you so quiet?' What could I tell him?
When within days of its release I came to know that he film is a super duper hit, I just couldn't believe it!"
