Her head cradled in a pink turban, these images are from a shoot Gautam Rajadhyaksha did - they were spread across magazines in the late 80s, and early 90s. You can see them in our archives here. 

Variations from the look were published on the cover of Stardust, Filmfare and other monthlies too.

Sridevi's Cover Shoot from the 1980s

Pretty in white. As always. Sridevi in the 1980s. On the cover of Hindi tabloid Sushma magazine. At Rs 7, its a bargain! People are selling Sridevi postcards on ebay for about US$25!

Sridevi on yet another Cine Blitz cover, this one was published in March 1990.

Cover tag: C.B. At Sreedevi's Private Palace. 

Early days, most magazines spelled out as "Sreedevi" not "Sridevi" - BTW if you were lucky enough to meet and get an autography, you know the iconic Indian actress signed "A Sreedevi" aka Ayappan Sreedevi } her given name. 

Fabulous glam series... all that bling and glossy makeup! Most fans of Jagadeka Veerudu Athiloka Sundari will recognise the outfit.
