After
playing
the
protagonist
in
her
comeback
film
English
Vinglish,
actress
Sridevi
is
looking
for
meaty
roles
and
is
not
keen
on
just
doing
elderly
roles
which
do
not
appeal
her.
In
English
Vinglish,
Sridevi
played
the
role
of
a
housewife
who
joins
an
English
speaking
course
to
regain
her
confidence
after
being
teased
by
her
husband
and
family.
The
film,
riding
on
her
shoulders,
did
quite
well
at
the
box
office.
"I
want
to
be
in
the
film
that
I
would
be
proud
of
and
not
just
for
the
sake
of
being
there
in
it.
I
want
to
do
films
that
appeal
to
me," Sridevi
told
PTI.
Asked
if
she
is
open
to
playing
an
aunt
or
a
mother,
the
actress
said,
"If
I
really
wanted
to
do
that
I
would
have
done
it
long
back,
then
why
would
I
wait?" Having
made
a
comeback
on
the
silver
screen
after
15
years,
the
actress
insists
that
she
won't
take
long
time
to
do
another
film.
"Definitely
it
won't
be
that
long
to
do
another
Bollywood
film.
People
are
approaching
and
they
want
to
narrate
stories
to
me.
I
hope
something
very
interesting
comes
my
way,"
Sridevi
said.
Her
husband
Boney
Kapoor
being
a
producer,
Sridevi
is
open
to
working
in
his
films.
"Definitely
he
will
make
films
for
me
and
I
would
like
to
work
in
them,
it
goes
without
saying,"
she
said.
Being
a
good
dancer,
would
she
be
open
to
doing
item
or
special
songs
and
surprise
the
audience,
the
veteran
actress
said,
"I
wouldn't
give
my
fans
such
a
big
surprise
by
doing
an
item
number
(laughs).
I
don't
know
why
people
call
some
songs
'item
numbers'.
I
would
call
them
special
songs
and
would
be
open
to
doing
special
songs."
Sridevi
does
not
believe
in
calling
English
Vinglish
her
comeback.
"I
don't
understand
why
there
is
so
much
stress
on
the
word
'comeback'.
We
don't
consider
our
films
as
a
comeback
because
we
never
went
anywhere.
We
were
not
a
part
of
any
film
but
were
very
much
a
part
of
the
industry.
The
audience
would
see
us
making
lot
of
public
appearances,"
she
said.
"Usually
actors
take
a
break
to
work
on
the
physical
area,
body
building
and
all
for
a
project.
But
that
is
not
the
case
with
actresses,"
she
said.
Her
films
were
always
associated
with
commercial
elements
like
song
and
dance
but
she
chose
a
different
kind
of
film
to
return
to
Bollywood.
"I
loved
the
simplicity
and
sensitivity
of
the
character
that
I
played.
So
never
did
it
cross
my
mind
that
I
was
doing
something
different.
I
don't
think
I
need
to
prove
myself
again
as
I
believe
in
my
fans
and
I
knew
they
would
like
my
film,"
Sridevi
added.
