Six Bollywood films featuring Jackie Shroff and Sridevi: Hindi cinema's infrequent co-stars

Though they got along just fine, for one reason or another, Bollywood stars of the 1980s, Jackie Shroff and Sridevi, rarely worked together, only two as co-stars, but in six Hindi films in total spanning a decade.  

Well, in Halla Bol, Sridevi has an all-too-brief guest appearance, a cameo really... as herself but, for the record, it was a film that both Sridevi and Jackie Shroff appeared in.

Otherwise, the two acted in five Hindi films, but only two where they were cast opposite each other namely Jawab Hum Denge and Karma.  

Halla Bol (2008) 

Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993) 

Patthar Ke Insan (1991) 

Main Tera Dushman (1989) 

Jawab Hum Denge (1987) 

Karma (1986) 

Jackie Shroff said his producers couldn't afford her but Sridevi was "a simple girl off-screen, dynamite on-screen."
