This portrait of teenaged Sridevi published in Andhra Pathrika magazine, Sridevi was just 13 in December 1976 - and already a leading lady. A heroine in Tamil and Telugu films. Clearly long before stringent child labour laws were put into place.
Sridevi gave up her childhood, education, schooling to become the acting legend she was. In later-year interviews, or even during her peak she said she had no regrets - "to get something, you have to give up something."
Hindsight is 20/20, but at the time, these were choices she and her family made.
