Family Statement on the death of SriDevi

Sridevi’s daughters Janhvi and Khushi performed the final rituals before the body was consigned to flames in the electric crematorium in Vile Parle with husband Boney Kapoor standing by.

However, many ordinary film fans also came to say goodbye.

Since the untimely death of Sridevi happened the entire nation is in grief, family, friends and well-wishers. “I hung up”, said Satish.

Realizing that Sridevi had a relationship with Mithun Chakravarthy at that time Boney Kapoor chose to move on and married Mona Shourie, whom his parents had found for him.

Sridevi was last seen in Mom. Unfortunately, she was shooting in Singapore, and Boney could not meet her. Since then he wished to work along with her, at least in a movie.

While the actress’ mortals will arrive soon, prayers are being held in her hometown now, with candles and garlands near her childhood photos.

“It’s a shock to believe she is no more. The bid on it will start at Rs 8 lakh”, Hindustan Times quoted a report as saying. “Sri was the highest paid actor, among the females”. The case had been closed, the prosecutor’s office said. From getting her the best make-up room to the best costumes, he went the extra mile to pamper her. I was stunned by her screen presence.

Kapoor concluded the letter: Rest in peace my love.

“We are big fans of hers and she means the world to us. I couldn’t hold myself back”, he admitted.

Sridevi’s loss seems to be an irreparable one for her legion of fans across the globe. This outpouring of love is the memory that we would like Khushi and Janhvi to have of their mother… a woman who was loved unquestionably by everyone. “Somehow, things fell in place”, he said.
