I think the phrase of the year is going to be "AI Slop". We seem to be encountering fakes daily - like a bad penny that keeps cropping up.
The two black and white images here are the original photographs of Sridevi and choreograph/dancer extraordinaire, Gopi Krishna. The legend directed Sridevi in only one film; Jaag Utha Insan. The AI slop is the coloured picture - an AI hallucination. Sridevi's costume was blue and white (as shown in past pics here) and the dancing legend was barefoot - not wearing patent black leather shoes while dancing. You can't see on the pic on the left as his kurta-pajama is long...
Gopi Krishna (the legendary Kathak dancer and choreographer, 1935–1994) choreographed for Sridevi in only one film: Jaag Utha Insan (1984). In that movie (directed by K. Viswanath), he handled her three notable semi-classical/Bharatanatyam-inspired numbers, including “Tarapat Beete” , a Durga Suktam/Tandav sequence, and related dances. These are frequently praised as some of Sridevi’s early standout classical performances in Hindi cinema.
