Rare pics of Sridevi with the cast and crew of Chandni (1989).
Love, love, love finding these vintage gems from the archives, especially of Sridevi in Chandni - the absolute zenith of her epic beauty, talent, fashion and infinite gifts so beautifully honed by the maestro that was Yash Chopra, who defines the Bollywood musical like few others.
Watching The Romantics on Netflix made me so nostalgic... even beyond the romances, Yash Chopra was a truly gifted director who covered the gamut of genres, his oeuvre was greater than the chiffon sari red roses soft focus songs shot in Switzerland. The grit, the mystery, the violence, the dramas... he really did them all exceptionally well. In my humble estimation, he was the most versatile Indian film director... of all time.
