1989 - Sridevi ends the decade with a bang! Bollywood' uncrowned queen

A chronological list of Sridevi's Hindi film releases in the year 1989;

  1. Main Tera Dushman   3 February, 1989
  2. Joshilay                     10 February, 1989
  3. Guru                          24 February, 1989
  4. Gair Kanooni            24 March, 1989
  5. Nigahein                   11 August, 1989
  6. Chandni                    14 September, 1989
  7. Chaalbaaz                  8 December, 1989


The hardest working Indian actress of all-time - Sridevi smashed the box-office, hauled in several nominations and Best Actress wins, rounding up her first decade in Bollywood as its uncrowned Queen. She owned Bollywood in 1989 and as she shyly walked up the dais to pick up her Best Actress award for Chaalbaaz, she beat out her only competition - herself, for her own performance in Chandni.


Triple Triumph: Sridevi's Best Actress wins for Chaalbaaz (1989), Sridevi's Padma Shri award (2012), Sridevi's Best Actress win for Lamhe (1991).
