The most comprehensive fan blog dedicated to India's most beautiful and greatest actress of all-time (in our humble opine!), Sridevi. Sridevi aka Sreedevi, ruled Indian cinema (with awesome performances in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi films) in a career spanning 50 incredible years featuring 266 films. Born in Sivakasi on August 13 1963, her untimely and tragic death on February 24, 2018 left a nation in mourning. In our hearts, she'll forever be, the eternal Queen of Bollywood.

Sridevi as a bride in Aulad: 80s soap operatic film from 1987!
Sridevi as a bride in Aulad: 80s soap operatic film from 1987!
Before there were daily soaps and dramas, there were Sridevi-Jeetendra-Jaya Prada movies. High drama, high emotions, "women's pictures"! Morning and afternoon shows with discounts for ladies, the movies were made quickly (or remade quickly as it were -- most were Tamil/Telugu/Malayalam remakes, the petri dish testing ground for big-budget Bollywood movies!), inexpensively made (apart from the salary of the sars!) and released with efficiency to be instant hits. The films were shot at a killer pace too - Jeetendra once mentioned, in 28 days he could churn out a film.
These were not high concept, thoughtful art movies, but morality tales and melodrama made purely to entertain the masses-- and it worked. And how! As we've listed before, the lucrative five years and over a dozen films together of Jeetendra and Sridevi made a lot of money for the industry.
