Anil
Couldn't
Stand
Sridevi's
Stardom
A
senior
journalist
Subhash
K
Jha
reveals,
"The
fact
that
Sridevi
was
a
bigger
star
than
him
was
a
bitter
pill
for
Anil
Kapoor
to
swallow."
Apparently,
Anil
couldn't
gulp
down
the
fact
that
Sridevi
was
a
bigger
star
than
him
and
he
ended
up
rejecting
two
blockbuster
films
starring
her!
Anil
Kapoor
Rejected
Two
Blockbuster
Films
Reportedly,
owing
to
getting
less
significant
roles
as
compared
to
Sridevi,
Anil
Kapoor
rejected
two
of
Sridevi's
blockbusters
in
the
1980s
i.e.,
Pankaj
Parashar's
'Chaalbaaz'
and
Yash
Chopra's
'Chandni'.
How
Sridevi
Reacted
To
His
Insecurity?
Says
a
family
friend,
"Anil
always
had
apprehensions
about
being
overshadowed
by
Sridevi.
Whenever
he
found
the
hero's
role
to
be
weaker,
he
would
decline
the
offer.
It
is
another
matter
that
Sridevi
walked
away
with
all
the
adulation,
although
the
film
was
named
after
Anil's
character
in
'Mr.
India.'"
However
With
Time,
Things
Changed
Between
Sridevi
&
Anil
Kapoor
Anil
Kapoor
&
Sridevi
let
the
bygones
be
bygones
and
got
involved
with
their
own
film
careers!
In
fact,
when
Sridevi
passed
away,
Anil
Kapoor
acted
as
a
pillar
of
support
for
Boney
Kapoor
and
family.
Anil
Took
Care
Of
Janhvi
&
Khushi
Like
His
Own
Daughters
A
source
had
informed
how
Anil
Kapoor
took
care
of
Khushi
&
Janhvi,
and
had
revealed
at
the
time
of
Sridevi's
demise,
"Daughters
Janhvi
and
Khushi
Kapoor
have
shifted
into
Anil's
residence.
Boney
is
completely
distraught
and
shattered.
But
he's
a
very
strong
man.
He
won't
allow
his
emotions
to
take
over
until
the
last
rites
are
over."
Anil
Kapoor
On
the
Work
Front
Currently,
Anil
Kapoor
is
in
a
happy
zone
as
his
latest
film,
Race
3
has
taken
the
box
office
by
storm
and
already
earned
Rs
100
Crore
within
three
days.
What's
Next?
Anil
Kapoor
will
be
next
seen
in
Ek

Ko

Rao
and

lead
