Without Spilling Any Nonsense Against Sridevi have a look into her magical career!

"Every
time I get my heart broken, the newspapers splash it about as though it’s
entertainment."
-Anna Scott in
Notting Hill
Bollywood Actor Sridevi became the victim of cruel mortality
last Saturday night. We are celebrating her life by listening to her hits on
the radio on the commute to work, rewinding her iconic songs like Hawa Hawai
while in office; there are also some people that are going on with their nasty
gossips about her.
What
questions do you wonder? Whether she had plastic surgery to look young,
according to one grapevine, there’s enough fodder for gossip. They also remind
you of the days when Sridevi’s news of her pregnancy along with the affair with
a much-married Boney Kapoor was discovered, then followed his then heartbroken
wife Mona Kapoor’s venting out in film magazines. Unlike in contemporary times
when exes turn BFFs, this was sheer melodrama on a different scale. However,
all these unnecessary dramas show Sridevi’s larger than life persona even after
death and mark the end of an era.
Let`s talk
about us! Where crumbling marriages are announced with amicable selfies and
one’s marital status has almost ceased to matter when it comes to hook-ups in
this Tinder age, we`re wondering whether the old moral high ground still holds.
Boney Kapoor was obviously blamed (by people!) for the ending his first
marriage for another woman, but Bollywood’s
superstar Sridevi also took the offense for it. It was her “cardinal sin”
that she destroyed another woman’s home. But, shouldn’t the person who was part
of the partnership take the fall for the failure, not the outsider? Should we
be questioning our knee-jerk reaction to the exclusion of the man who started
it all, in the first place to making it all about the women involved? Morality
was always a grey area, but even more so today.
Sridevi made
a special place in lives of all the 90`s kids. The memories will always remain
fresh as lilies in our mind. Once Karan Johar interestingly brought up
Sridevi’s name and shared how we all love seeing her dancing. Do you know that
she wasn’t trained and did not have a strong footwork expertise? It was she
being herself, her expressions, joy, and fun while dancing that made her
performances so lively. Or you can say she danced like there is no tomorrow.
And if
you`re a hard-core romantic and believe in sweet romance than the sexy ones,
then it`s the perfect time to accept that you have found yourself dreaming
yourself with your crush on “Kabhi main kahoon”, “Tu Mujhe kabool”. And if you
hadn’t fantasized your boyfriend to shower rose petals on you from a helicopter
singing “Rang bhare Badal se, tere naino ke kajal se”, then it`s high time that
you shouldn’t call him “Mere shona” ever again!
In the end, it’s up to us to celebrate the
legacy a star left behind and keeping apart her personal life. We want to thank Sridevi for giving us some
of our best childhood memories. Thank you for the movies, your charm, and the
magic, Sridevi!
