Famous Fan: Konkona Sen Sharma, "I love Sridevi..."

Born on Dec 3, the very fine actress (and a first-rate director!) Konkona Sen Sharma turns a year older today. We wish the famous fan of Sridevi well. A throwback to this quote from 2013. 

Q: Last year [2012] has been a great year for Hindi films and for women-centric roles. Do you think we are finally moving away from formulaic roles?
Konkana Sen Sharma: I think we get excited very quickly. I mean I loved English Vinglish and I love Sridevi but English Vinglish still needs a Sridevi to get made, it’s not like it’s just any unknown actor. I definitely think we do have more films like Kahaani, I think Vidya has done a lot for this cause, which is great. So I think it’s happening, it’s probably happening very slowly and also more than our actors or actresses, we are very heavily dependent on our star system because to get funding you need a star. That’s very unfortunate, kind of ‘Catch 22’ situation to be in."
