Sridevi, Raghavendra Rao and Chiranjeevi on the sets of Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari (1990). Goes without saying, for the longest time, this was the biggest hit of all time in the Telufu film industry and subsequently dubbed in Hindi as Aadmi Aur Apsara, in Tamil as Kaadhal Devathai, and in Malayalam as Hai Sundari.

Something was lost in translation as the box-office success in other centres didn't do as well as expected; not of great consequence as the film made soooooooooo much money in Telugu centres, it didn't matter.

Sridevi with K Raghavendra Rao

The only director to work with Sridevi in 24 films, K Raghavendra Rao requested Sridevi to work with him in one more film to make it a silver - ie 25 - jubilee. This was at the Telugu trailer launch of Mom. Sridevi said it was her honour. Sadly, the day never came to be.
