I find it remarkable how a 47 year old is called "desperate" for working at this age. She is trying to do movies which not many of her age can do, she is part of JDJ as a judge to make a living of her own, while a 50 year old is called "classy" for NOT working at this age, for being secretive/mysterious staying away from public limelight, for doing ONE movie in 2012, for claiming 25 crores over lost jewellery and clothes in fire.

And lets not forget it has been reported on and off at least in 2011 Sri and Boney were having financial problems. Sri has been reported to have a lavish lifestyle and seems to be living off her husband (considering she has done ONE movie in a while), but of course she is the classy one while someone who attempts to work for a living is just desperate.

Also, I don't even understand what's so bad, cheap, or desperate about doing a TV show ? It's a well-paid job. Jeez with the words thrown around, you'd think she was organizing a prostitution ring or something. 😕

I guess Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Hrithik, Riteish, Sonali Bendre, Karan Johar, Kirron Kher, Farhan Akhtar, SRK, Aamir Khan, Rani, Juhi, the goddess Sridevi herself, Karisma, Kajol, Ajay, Akshay, PC, Rohit Shetty, etc...are all desperate people for hosting/judging/ acting in TV serials. 😆

that's wat i fail to understand. I guess some just cant grasp the fact that she is a working mother and devoted wife. I guess people rather have her sit jobless at home, and cook and clean, and serve her husband than pursue her passion.🥱

PS : now an oscar winning actress Halle Berry is also coming on tv, i m sure she is desperate for some reorganization too

Are you guys purposely playing dumb? Or do you have a comprehension problem?

Lots of people turn to television- there is nothing wrong with that. There is also nothing wrong with a 45+ old women working. That's not the point. The point is that her presence on the show is a clear sign for desperation. The constant worshipping, getting up to dance every fricking minute etc etc. All those things Madhuri has ASKED FOR - I personally know choreographers on the show, so I know thats indeed. I have also attended a live taping. Its all planned beforehand. Is that not desperate? To ask for attention and ASKED to be worshipped? Then she acts all "surprised" on the show..."who me? get up and dance ...no no" and then gets up and dances (which she clearly has rehearsed) what a phony!
Her stint on Jhalak, is much different than the other celebs on TV. If you cant see the difference, then sorry to say, you're an idiot.
Regarding Sridevi's personal life, I would refrain from projecting Mona Kapoor as "victim", again, you don't know the fully story and frankly its none of your business 😕 You don't know what these people had to go through, and its their life! Didn't Saif do the same to Amrita Singh? I don't see anyone feeling sorry for her. Arjun himself is okay with it, he just puts on an act in order to get sympathy. If that was the case he wouldn't be an assistant TO HIS FATHER if he was such a bad person.
The fact that Madhuri fans even have to comment on Sridevi's personal life to bring her down is proof enough that Sridevi is solid professionally. At least Sridevi doesn't use tax money for her own personal gain. I love how Madhuri fans always turn a blind-eye to her issues. So convieninet.

Sridevi is 10 times the actress that Madhuri, but Madhuri is the biggest female superstar of all time.

Has anybody seen her blockbusters. Beta, HAHK...its a Mahuri show all the way. Her Heroes never mattered. Madhuri was the Show.

What kind of logic is that? Sridevi beat people like Rekha and Hema Malini. The ultimate rulers prior to her. Usual thing to beat older/senior counterparts.

Sridevi also came from nowhere only. Success in South movies adds to her status. It does not mean it made it easy for her to succeed in Bollywood . How many South stars have actually succeeded and ruled?

With Sridevi there is a lot to talk of be it past, present, regional movies, style statements or the higher remuneration than male stars of 80s at her peak and getting paid equal to Bachchan. Not just smile or dance.

Today she is getting laurels and promoting her film abroad while the great who beat her is merely promoting a local dance TV show.

BTW

Talking of Sridevi's declining years, from BOI,

Army below average, Rajkumar and Premgranth disasters - http://web.archive.org/web/20071014033845/boxofficeindia.com/1996.htm

Looks like Sri had some steam left even in her declining and luta pita phase. 😆😛


eh what logic you looking for here.

let me see...

sri is 1st actress to be a born artist from her mummy's tummy. she was a child artist. if you remember movie julie, she played sis role of her real life sis laxmi . i remember i saw some clips of hers from movies where was just a child.

she was a champion in tamil movies before she came to bollywood. she was already so comfortable with camera, so don't tell me suddenly she got dropped from the sky.

most girls from southie were hits in bollywood. that was a trend. hema, rekha, jaya pradhas..were solid. sri was another addition. with her oomph, dances, acting she scored big time in bollywood.

she came and toppled biggies rekha and hema. that made her queen right there.
she was riding high and mighty, untouchable, yes, paid as much as big b (claimed but never proved).

and no, no no, she didn't just smile and dance, but went further to create some major aerobic videos with jeetu, behind the trees, in fancy gardens, in kader khans bungalow, with oranges, apples, strawberries showered upon them from every angle possible. all THIS she did early on. its not that right away she came and started delivering all these solid performance oriented movies. nah..she ate ice cream with jeetu many many times behind trees, cars, trucks, buses, then she showed her real power.

she displayed her major asset - her thunder thighs, whenever given chance and madhosh kar daali audience ko - TOP!

actually baring sadma, most of her early on movies had oranges and apples ki barsaat. its only after naagin, chaandani, and lamhes she started rocking with her performances.

and madhuri, she came in abodh, big flop. then came ek do teen. history. and we all know she never looked back. just like sri, she used her dancing skills, her oomph, her cholis, to lure audiences to theaters. and audience just fell in love with her. rupaiya beege. out goes sri, in came dixit.

if sri is a pro in acting, then madhuri has that power magnet to suck audience with her alluring - dash of acting, dash of ghayal karne wale adaa, her midriffs, her boob thrusting dances (only she can do it -- you gotta know how to do it RIGHT), and her biggest asset- her million dollar smile.

i seriously believe when madhuri toppled sri from top, even she must have : OHH MY ..did i just beat THE sridevi?.

past, present, future...whatever...the fact is madhuri did it. she climbed mount Everest and kicked sri down...rolling.

and lol why judaii, why koyla???...lets bring the real movies like ...hold on...ROOP KI RAANI CHORON KA RAJA.

this movie's failure, right here made madhuri the number one.

this movie was hyped so much, sri was discussed daily, about her looks, her dances, her role...and what not.

boney kapoor went bald, later they found out that he had to sell his hair to pay for sri devi's dresses, her tantrums were all time high as dixit was breathing down her neck. heavy breathing.

one after the other...madhuri kept delivering.
even sri had a minuscule role in karma, but ghai gave madhuri good numbers to dance and also an interesting role. critics were kind to her, she got some good reviews.

today sri is getting laurels, but even yesterday she got laurels. that doesn't take anything from madhuri. so what her comeback was a failure. i am just happy that when it was her time to deliver and she worked hard and WON the trophy from sri's - who was holding it so tight for so long...ouchhh,!🥳

i care less what they do now, what they doing tomorrow. i don't care who promotes what...they both are in their own space and happy. so be it.

i am just glad that madhuri won the olympic gold medal and sri had to settle for silver...i am talking about when the REAL battle was on.😛

ohh and yes, if tomorrow sri's movie announced, it will certainly make my one of the most awaited list. i love her acting ...bottomline. she is a gem.

madhuri...i love her always - she is unmatchable when it comes to the best bollywood packaged actress ever..

ohhh and yes her comeback movies sucked, so be it. 😛

Yaar, I am suddenly hearing that Sridevi was once being called Female Amitabh.

But that was never ever the case. It was Madhuri who was being called Female Amitabh. Sridevi is being called 'Female Amitabh' only by her fans when Madhuri was given the tag by the media.

I would not know who has made a bigger impact. Even the maestros of bollywood, who knew what "bigger impact" REALLY meant (because it effected their bottom line), worked with BOTH of them. I am talking about the likes of Yash Chopra. If these large production houses did not differentiate between the two; then who are we to judge.
