Born as Shree Amma Yanger Ayyapan in Tamil Nadu, Sridevi started her career at a tender age of four and proved that ‘age is not a bar’ for one’s talent. Working in multilingual cinemas, excelling in each cinema, was one thing which distinguished Sri ma’am from her contemporaries. Even though she is not present with us today, her legacy, charisma and our love for one of Indian cinema’s first female superstar will live on.
From delivering effortless performances, winning our hearts with her dance moves to being a dutiful parent and wife, Sridevi showed that balancing the personal and professional life, though difficult, is not impossible. Apart from just being an actress, she was also a graceful dancer and the 55-year-old actress was an epitome of elegance as well. Be it during the 80s, or the 2000s, the way she would give stars run for the money, with her style files, made us fall in love with her each time. From being the diva on the red carpet to carrying off traditional ethnic wear- especially sarees with ease, Sridevi had a different aura altogether.
While the veteran actress loved sporting chiffon/Kanchipuram sarees, she had gradually begun experimenting with her modern silhouettes as well. Whether she chose to go with a jump-suit or gowns which had her favourite metallic touch, or say the classic pant-suits, Sri always kept it neat and elegant.
Remembering how she made an impression with her style at every outing, let us revisit a few pictures which make it clear that Sridevi was a style icon and a timeless beauty, which also made her stand apart from everyone.
You will live in our hearts forever, Sri.
