When Sridevi enacts a role, she becomes that character ! Its not Sridevi u see on screen, but the character she is playing ! Thas the reason even today even the names of the popular characters she played are remembered by all ! Be it Reshmi, Rajni, Seema, Chandni, Anju-Manju,Pallavi-Pooja,Benazeer-Mehndi,Sheetal jaitley,Kajal or Shashi... Just got thru these names, and u ll realise what i mean ! What u see is different powerful characters and not the star Sridevi ! Thas why she is the Ultimate performer !!
What an actress and what an era. She ruled Telugu and Tamil film industry for about two decades and Bollywood for around one and half decade. No actress can fill the place of Sridevi. Incomparable. Khudos to her. People were mad about her, the princess of Indian cinema.

The princess of Indian cinema who doesn't know acting. See the films of Smitha Patil, Shobhana(south), Manju Varrior ( Malayalam) and understand what acting is. Simply dancing for a song cannot be termed as acting.

ha ha funny indeed!! Sridevi is the idol of the so called manju warrier and shobhana..Also..shobhana ois kinda overrated who was good only as nagavalli...that also major credit goes to the dubbing artists....Smitha Patil is ofcourse a good actress..but there is a trend of proclaiming the not so good looking people as the best actors!! Well,No matter who speaks what, Sridevi is beyond compare..Total package...

Mr,Ratheesh as Anil said Sridevi is also an great actress ,i think you have not seen her movies like,Meendum kokila,Jhonny,Moondram Pirai,Moondru Mudichu, an acclaime versatile actress and as Anil says most of the heroines even Shabhana Azmi,and also Shobhana and Manju warrier have mentioned that they were fans of Sridevi and have been influenced in many ways

Mr, reethesh, looks like ur knowledge of cinema and acting is quite limited ! Or probably u r confusing Sridevi to another Heroine of those times, who today is remembered only as a dancer for her item songs then !!
Wow .. Accomplished performances by a supremly talented actress. What wonders me here is every song here u remember is for the character she played in the movie and when its Sridevi she does this like nobody does it.
