Sridevi in Himmatwala (1983)
The early days, it's hard to believe now, that Sridevi got sooo much criticism for her wardrobe, the press in the south went after her for the "dare bare" looks in the movie - which is so laughable now considering how much social mores have changed.
When I see the film now, Sri just looks like a doll, perfect in every look, graceful and gorgeous, at age 20, wearing what the youth of that time were wearing, contemporary Indian fashion and all the razzmatazz of young Bollywood, bold colours, prints, eye candy for the cine-goers. Who remember the faceless, nameless hacks of that era who criticised the young aspiring actress endlessly? Sridevi is one for the ages.
