The
'Thugs
Of
Hindostan'
actress
always
idolized
Sridevi
and
shared
a
heart-felt
post
on
her
Instagram
page.
She
wrote,
" My
favorite
actress
...
a
legend
...
and
the
kindest
gentlest
woman
u
could
meet
...
an
unbelievable
tragedy
this
is
.....all
my
prayers
and
thoughts
with
the
family."

She
said,
"I
value
her
for
her
sanskars
as
in
spite
of
achieving
the
highest
position
of
'superstar'
in
Bollywood,
she
never
compromised
with
the
south
Indian
sanskars
inculcated
in
her."
Jaya
Prada
"News
of
her
demise
seems
like
a
bad
dream.
I
couldn't
believe
it
till
I
saw
it
on
news
channels.
We
worked
together
in
several
films
like
Tohfa
(1984).
She
was
a
wonderful
actor
and
mother.
It
was
her
dream
to
see
her
daughters
(Janhvi
and
Khushi)
rule
the
silver
screen
-
just
like
she
did."
Smriti
Irani
She
penned
an
emotional
letter
which
read,
"
"I
pay
homage
to
an
actor
who
through
her
body
of
work
ascertained
that
a
female
actress
place
in
a
commercial
Hindi
movie
is
not
only
to
compliment
her
male
counterparts.
My
memories
of
Sridevi
are
built
through
my
journey
from
being
a
fan
girl
to
an
actor
and
then
my
role
as
a
politician...
She
was
a
woman
who
knew
her
mind
and
despite
the
challenges
that
came
her
way,
she
approached
life
with
a
lot
of
dignity.
That
her
male
co-stars
had
to
depend
on
her
magic
for
their
box
office
success
was
an
ode
to
her
calibre.
It
was
not
just
her
dance
moves
that
dazzled
many,
her
comic
timing
is
worth
a
study.
The
versatility
with
which
she
could
oscillate
between
making
her
audience
cry
and
laugh
spoke
volumes
of
her
strength
as
an
actor.

Just
woke
up
to
the
terrible
news
of
Sridevi
passing.
My
heart
goes
out
to
her
family.
The
world
has
lost
a
very
talented
person
who
left
behind
a
huge
legacy
in

"I
danced
to
hawa
Hawaii
when
I
was
in
school.....I
have
seen
every
film
of
hers
multiple
times....I
met
her
with
shaking
hands
and
feet
on
the
sets
of
my
fathers
film
GUMRAH....and
felt
I
had
arrived
when
she
called
me
for
the
first
time
.....every
time
I
met
her
I
had
a
star
struck
moment
and
a
fan
boy
vibe....I
don't
think
I
can
believe
it...perhaps
I
don't
think
I
want
to
believe
that
she
is
no
more...
she
is
a
huge
reason
I
love
the
movies....I
feel
like
Indian
cinema
just
lost
its
smile....the
heavens
are
fortunate
they
just
inherited
a
gift
of
life.....heartbroken....."
Anupam
Kher
He
was
quoted
as
saying
to
ANI,
"Sridevi
will
always
remain
alive
in
my
memory.
It
feels
awkward
to
speak
of
her
in
the
past
tense.
We
have
lost
the
biggest
star
of
our
country.
I
still
cannot
believe
it.
It
will
take
many
years
to
register
what
has
actually
happened."
Vivek
Oberoi
He
told
ANI,
"
It's
a
big
loss
not
only
for
all
film
industries
of
India
but
also
for
the
nation.
She
was
a
legend
of
the
film
fraternity.
As
an
actor
I
think
my
journey
is
incomplete
because
I
didn't
get
to
do
a
film
with
her.
Her
name,
her
work
will
live
on
forever."
Raj
Babbar
"It
is
really
a
sad
day
for
the
film
industry.
She
was
a
complete
artist
&
a
great
human
being.
May
God
give
enough
strength
to
her
family
to
bear
such
tragedy."
Jacqueline
Fernandez
She
took
to
Instagram
to
share
a
video
of
her
playing
the
song
‘Hallelujah'
on
the
keyboard
as
her
tribute
to
the
beautiful
actress.
She
captioned
it
as,
"Today
has
been
a
daze
for
me...
so
many
things
to
digest...
she
went
too
soon...
I
was
always
an
admiring
fan
to
her,
she
was
always
so
gracious
and
kind
to
me...
her
passing
has
taught
me
something...
life
is
so
short
and
so
fragile,
every
moment
counts,
this
is
not
a
rehearsal...
there
will
never
be
anyone
like
her...
RIP
#Sridevi."
