TBT to 1985: "I love the traditional Indian look, lots of jewellery and a bindi."


"My mother and sister do all the shopping for me. I don't know much about clothes and fashion. Lata says I am not modern and careless. When I'm not filming, I feel most comfortable wearing salwaar kameez or a saree. I love the traditional Indian look - lots of jewelry and a bindi. One time, my sister made me wear jeans to a party and I was so uncomfortable that I fidgeted the whole time. Someone even asked me if I had ants in my pants. Since then I have never worn trousers. And, yes, I don't have any foreign clothes because what I wear can only be bought in Bombay and Madras."
-- Sridevi, Cine Blitz, 1985
