Manish Malhotra turns 59 today - Sridevi often said he was her best friend in the industry. There isn't a single feature when he didn't praise or bring up Sridevi with respect and admiration. We wish the gifted and game-changing celebrity designer the very best. Happy Days Manish.

| Sridevi and Chiranjeevi |
Q: Where did the Manish Malhotra Saga begin?Manish: “… The first outfit I designed for a film was for Divya Bharati. However, the film directed by David Dhawan got shelved. After that, David called me to design Juhi’s outfit for a song in Swarg. But my real challenge came when Rakesh introduced me to Sridevi. She assigned me to design for her and Chiranjeevi in Aadmi Aur Apsara."
“Sridevi was my favourite actress. There hasn’t been a real star after her. She was the best. She was really knowledgeable about the intricacies of a film costume. I really miss her..."
