Hindi cinema icons. It was Sridevi's first year of success in Bollywood and Parveen was already a top leading lady. While the media flamed the fires of cat fights among actresses, these two lading ladies were immune to the gossip and got along well. Both spoke kindly of the other, Parveen broke the mold of what a Hindi film heroine was, Sridevi was that rare, raw talent from the South who blazed her own way too.
Both appeared in the multi-star cast big budget melodrama Jaani Dost, Parveen was Dharmendra's co-star and Sridevi was Jeetendra's.
Below: Dharmendra, Parveen Babi, Sridevi and Jeetendra on the sets of Jaani Dost. Page from a feature on celebs in Bollywood in the 1980s! Some things don't change...
