Shashi's Rama - aka Rajeev Ravindranathan, reminsces about his last shot with Sridevi



Sridevi's co-star in English Vinglish, Rajeev Ravindranathan ("Rama" in the film) reminisces (about "Shashi"); 

"Such a beautiful memory. But there's something odd about the pic. I'm absolutely sure she had no make-up or lipstick on when we clicked this. She was resplendent in all her natural charm and grace that evening. I'll never forget this pic. 

We took it on the last day of shooting - the wedding scene. She had just delivered that iconic speech. I was late for my flight. I didn't want to leave but a snowstorm had robbed us of the spare day planned to let our hair down and celebrate the wrap. We'd been working together for 6 weeks by then and I suddenly realised I hadn't clicked a single pic with her. So after my goodbyes and everything, I ran back from the cab to quickly click this one and take off again. 

It would be a whole year till I met her again at the premiere. What a rush of memories, thanks for sharing this pic."
