Sridevi in Dubai

 

From June 2015, when Sridevi was in Dubai. to receive a trophy from the Asiavison Radio and Television Awards from the Middle East region. A medley of songs and dances were preformed by young dancers honouring Sridevi. Sridevi looked like a complete diva on stage, outshining all.

Designer and Sridevi's bestie Manish Malhotra posted this selfie with the superstar back in Dec 2017. 

The clip below shows how long it took; also the easy camaraderie the two shared.

Manish Malhotra, "I'm CRAZY about Sridevi. I was a rank newcomer, when she chose to work with me. I worked with her for seven years. Her knowledge about dress designing is amazing. She's a quick learner too. She's picked up a lot of tips on dressing as the years went by. She wore lovely clothes in some of her films like Chandni, Lamhe and Chaalbaaz. My best work with her was in Judaai."

Some stars are evergreen and Sridevi is certainly one of them. As Karan Johar once remarked, “Sridevi can never go out of fashion.” The Mom star is, in fact, witnessing a career revival post English Vinglish and Mom. Before that, as we all know, the actress was busy playing mom to daughters Jhanvi and Khushi in real life and had to take a break from acting.

With English Vinglish, she made a successful comeback after more than a decade. Bollywood can be cruel to senior stars, but Sridevi became one of the few stars, alongside Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha, to break that shackle. After her performance in English Vinglish, in which she played a coy mother who nobody appreciates and takes for granted until she proves that there’s so much more to her than her laddoo-making skills, producers made a beeline for Sridevi.

But instead of jumping into a film-singing spree, she waited patiently for the right script. And then came along Mom, which was worlds apart from English Vinglish. The avenging mother of this thriller co-starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Akshaye Khanna was the polar opposite of the docile Shashi of English Vinglish. Mom wowed the critics and audiences alike and Sridevi’s power-packed performance was singled out as one of her best. The movie has made waves in  the international arena too as it was screened at a film festival in Moscow.

And although Miss Hawa Hawaii is on a roll, something tells us that this cinematic legend has much more to offer - which is great news for her legions of fans!

Sridevi in Dubai for the Masala Awards 2017

Decked in a Manish Malhotra ensemble - a phrase we've come to repeat often on this blog, Sridevi attended the Masala Awards in Dubai. But naturally she looked splendid and posed with an array of stars who attended the occasion.

Sridevi picked up the Cinematic Legend Of The Year trophy. Her film Mom was a box-office smashed and Sridevi received great critical acclaim too.
