Sridevi's house in Chennai: A grand tour by Janhvi Kapoor for Vogue India

The original Sridevi house was palatial, much larger than this smaller one shown in the4 clip - Sridevi moved to a smaller house (which she talked about in interviews in the 90s) as the original palace was too big to maintain, especially when she was hardly there. 

The photo makes us nostalgic. We had a Sridevi wall too growing up! Except they were all cut outs from film magazines.

Sridevi: "I'm very much a Chennaiite at heart": Tamil audio launch of Puli

SRIDEVI BONEY KAPOOR ‏@SrideviBKapoor  Sep 4

At the PULI audio launch. #PuliAudioLaunchInKTV

Its been 27 years since her last Tamil film, but Sridevi remains every inch the diva she always was. Dressed in a deep plum chiffon saree, the actress came to attend the audio launch of her upcoming Tamil film Puli.

Speaking slowly and hesitantly in Tamil, she said, “It’s been a long time since I attended an event here, and I’m very happy to be back in Chennai as part of this event for my Tamil film. I was apprehensive on the first day of shooting. I thank Chimbudevan for giving me this great opportunity and I was amazed to see Vijay’s humbleness on the sets. People always ask me whether I miss Tamil Nadu. I was born and brought up in Chennai. My heart is always here. Though I live in Mumbai, I have never felt that I’m out of my hometown.”
