Sridevi with her sister Sreelatha at home in Chennai

Either 5th or 6th August is Sridevi's sister Sreelatha's birthday. 

Sridevi was very close to her only sibling in the early years. There was a fall-out soon after their mother died (brouhaha over property and money - something so typical in family feuds that it doesn't require any more press) and then reconciliation. Legend has it Boney Kapoor had a hand in ensuring that the sister retained ties - even though Sreelatha famously spoke out again him to the press in the 90s during Sridevi and Boney Kapoor's controversial marriage. 

Thankfully the sisters had made up, all was forgiven (on both sides) and were close again in the latter half of Sridevi's all-too short life. 

We have the largest archive of Sridevi with her only sister Srilatha, her youngest sibling here.
