February
24,
2018
left
a
hole
in
the
hearts
of
Bollywood
cinephilles.
It
was
the
day
that
one
of
the
most
enigmatic
actresses
of
the
Hindi
film
industry,
Sridevi
passed
away
due
to
accidental
drowning.
Mid-Day
has
reported
that
Sridevi's
husband
Boney
Kapoor
and
their
daughter
Janhvi
Kapoor
held
a
puja
to
mark
her
second
death
anniversary.
Khushi
could
not
make
it
to
the
puja
because
she
is
abroad
studying.
Later
in
the
day,
Boney
may
announce
the
details
of
the
reboot
to
her
iconic
movie
Mr.
India,
as
a
tribute
to
her.
A
few
days
back,
filmmaker
Ali
Abbas
Zafar
had
taken
to
Twitter
to
announce
the
remake
of
Mr.
India
with
a
trilogy
film
series.
However,
Mr.
India's
original
director
Shekar
Kapur
expressed
his
disappointment
with
the
announcement.
He
took
to
Twitter
to
write
that
no
one
sought
his
permission
to
make
Mr.
India
2.
He
speculated
that
the
makers
must
be
using
the
title
only
to
get
a
big
opening
weekend
because
the
original
creators
of
a
film
must
give
permission
to
use
the
same
story
and
characters.
In
his
latest
tweet,
Shekar
questioned
how
there
can
be
another
Mogambo.
Sharing
a
picture
of
Amrish
Puri
as
the
iconic
character
Mogambo,
he
wrote,
"Kya
Kaha?
Mr
India
2
??
Is
duniya
mein
koi
aur
Mogambo
bhi
hai
??"
(sic).
It
only
remains
to
be
seen
whether
Boney
Kapoor
will
give
his
blessing
to
the
film
by
making
an
announcement
in
its
favour.
Last
year
too,
the
Kapoor
family
had
held
a
puja
for
Sridevi,
not
on
February
24,
but
on
February
14.
The
rituals
were
done
in
her
maternal
home
in
Chennai,
and
it
was
attended
by
Boney,
Janhvi,
Khushi
and
other
members
of
the
Kapoor
family
including
Anil
and
Sanjay
Kapoor.
