Sridevi on the phone! A collage


Sridevi on the phone - can you name all the films... ?! 

English Vinglish, Ram Avtar and Kshana Kshanam are the obvious ones... 

Skirting the issue: Sridevi collage from 1997


 

Sridevi and Anil Kapoor publicity stills for Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja

Sridevi and Anil Kapoor's publicity shots for Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja. 

Images that were in all the mags in the early 1990s. 

That's a lot of... red! 

Sridevi in Main Tera Dushman


 Sridevi in Main Tera Dushman. A KC Bokadia film... 

 Sadly, not a very good one. 

Chaalbaaz (1989): Sridevi whips everyone into shape

Sridevi in Chaalbaaz. Powerful on screen - and off! 

Sridevi's mostly essayed roles of empowered women, from the whip carrying diva in Himmatwala, to the gun-totting Sherni, to Manju, the take-no-nonsense spitfire in Chaalbaaz.

She was a firecracker off screen too; refusing roles where the hero had all the glory, fighting with film producers in court, taking no nonsense when it came to remuneration and when it came to clocking out on time when her shift was done! 

No one puts Sri baby on the side.
