The first frame of Dhadak: 20 Jul 2018: The Sridevi tribute by Janhvi Kapoor. I remember watching this and tearing up....
Just five months after Sridevi's passing, the fact she didn't get to see her first-born's completed film (legend has it that she did see bits and parts of the movie prior to release)... It was all too much...
Shahrukh Khan's Zero was another film that opened with a Sridevi tribute...
Dhadak's box-office was phenomenal, despite lukewarm reviews; a Budget of ₹41 crore and Box office est. ₹110 crore!
Took me a long time to watch the film as we knew it was a tragedy - and yet, the shock of that ending stayed with me for a long time. As did the music. The lead star kids were fine - in retrospect they were great. There have been far worse nepo babies since...
