Though she's barely there in the film Jaanbaaz (an extended cameo with a scene and a song), thanks to the sensuous picturisation of Sridevi in the chart-buster Har kisiko Nahin milta, she strut away with all the credit for the film's success.
Legend has it, Feroz Khan wanted Sridevi to wear western outfits in the film. Sridevi however, convinced Khan to let her wear Indian outfits. Sridevi felt Dimple and Rekha were already wearing glamorous western outfits so she should do something different. Feroz agreed and told her "All I need is your face. Just give me oozing sex appeal with your expressions".
Sridevi delivered. And how.
Though Feroz Khan worked with every single top actress in the history of Bollywood, for years after he said, Sridevi was the most gorgeous actress he worked with. Ever.
Legend also has it that Boney Kapoor threw down the gauntlet to Shekhar Kapur, when it came to picturising a sensuous song Kate Nahin Kat the. "
In fact the song, I love you was not in the original script of Mr.India. It was added later. One day Boney Kapoor came and told me that he had seen Jaanbaaz and was stunned by the sensuality Sridevi exuded in a song sequence. "She can't look more sensual," he said.
I went and saw the film and accepted the challenge to present her more sensually The result was I love you. She looked so sensual, fully clothed."
