Sridevi in the Telugu film Premabhishekam (1981) and in its Tamil remake Vazhvey Maayam (1982)



Sridevi in the Telugu film Premabhishekam (1981) and in its Tamil remake Vazhvey Maayam (1982)

Sridevi has mentioned in interviews that remakes are a headache and often the original is better than its later incarnations (eg Moondram Pirai versus Sadma). However, many feel Vazhvy Maayam was a more polished performance of Sridevi's than the Telugu original. Perhaps, knowing all the beats and where her footprints led, Sridevi exuded more confidence and know-how. 

For many, there's nothing like the music of Vazhvey Maayam - including its iconic song, Devi, Sridevi, picturised on Kamal Haasan and gorgeous Sridevi.
