The film world has been shocked by the sudden death of seasoned actress Sridevi. Tributes have been flowing in from all corners since early morning.
Superstar Aamir Khan wrote a heartfelt note on Twtter.
“I am deeply disturbed and saddened by the untimely and tragic passing away of Srideviji. I have always been a huge fan of her work. Equally I have always been an admirer of the grace and dignity with which she conducted herself. My heartfelt condolences to everyone in the family. I join all the millions of her fans in mourning her demise. Ma’am, we will always respect you with love and respect,” Khan wrote.
Film and television actor Sudesh Berry recalled the only time he worked with the legend in the film Army (1996). “Stars like Hema Malini and SridevI, they only come once in a lifetime," Berry told Cinestaan.com. "For an actor like me to work with her happens only once in a lifetime.
"I am fortunate to have worked with her in Army. During our first meeting I was pleasantly surprised when she told me she had watched me in the TV show Andaz. I was over the moon. I asked whether she had really seen the show and she replied, 'Good actors cannot remain hidden'."
Berry also recalled a touching anecdote. “If you see most of my pictures, I have this tendency to never look at the camera," he said. "During a group picture, I was the only one who was looking up. Sridevi and the other actors looked into the camera. After that, whenever I faced the camera Sridevi and the others would also look up at the sky.”
