Hopefully things will be clear and that her final rituals are done in timely manner. My heart goes out to her daughters.
Such a phenomenal actress. I still remember her tandav dance in Chandani.

Her body is being embalmed today because of the delays, Ami. 😔 I too feel so bad for her two daughters. 💔

My Love Letter To Sridevi's Fans

10 MINUTES AGO PUBLIC

I debated with myself whether I should put this out because of some names mentioned but i strongly felt SRIDEVI belongs to her fans more than anyone else and they deserve to know the truth

MY LOVE LETTER TO SRIDEVI'S FANS

Ram Gopal Varma

YES like millions of you,I too believed that she was the most beautiful and desirable woman ever and we all know that she was the biggest super star of the country and ruled the silver screen as a main heroine for more than 20 years

But that's just a part of the story. However shocked and sad I feel about Sridevi's death, it's finally once again a rude reminder about how unpredictable, cruel,fragile and mysterious that both life and death are.

After her death ,more than you all there is definitely much more for me to say than what most people are saying now about,how beautiful she was, what a great actress she was, how her death affected them, " RIP"s etc etc

That's because I had an opportunity to be close to her in the course of my two Films with her Kshanakshanam and Govinda Govinda. Sridevi's life is a classic case of how a celebrity's persons actual life is completely different from how the rest of the outside world perceives it.

For many, Sridevi's life was perfect . Beautiful face, great talent, seemingly stable family with two beautiful daughters. From outside everything looked so enviable and desirable... But was Sridevi a very happy person and did she lead a very happy life?

I know her life from the time I met her . I saw with my own eyes how her life was like a bird in the sky till her father's death and then became like a bird in a cage due to her overprotective mother

In those days actors used to be only paid in mostly black money and due to fear of tax raids her father used to trust friends and relatives and everyone of them betrayed her the moment her father died. Coupled with this the ignorant mother made many wrong investments in litigated properties and all those mistakes combined made her almost penny less by the time Boney came into her life

He himself was in huge debts and all he could afford was to give her a shoulder to cry on

Her mother became a mental patient because of a wrong surgery on her brain in USA and somewhere along the way her younger sister Srilatha eloped and got married to their neighbours son. The mother before dying put all properties in sridevis name but her sister put a case on Sridevi claiming that her mother was insane and not in her senses when she signed the will

So in effect the woman desired by millions in the world was all alone and almost penny less in the world except for one Boney

Boney s mother portrayed her as a home breaker and publically punched her in the stomach in a five star hotel lobby for what she did to Boney's first wife Mona

In this entire period except for the short glimmer of English vinglish Sridevi has been pretty much an extremely unhappy woman. The uncertainty of the future,the ugly turns and twists in her private life left deep scars in the super stars sensitive mind and there after she was never at peace.

She went through so much in her life and due to her early career entry as a child artiste,life never gave her time to grow up at a normal pace. More than the external peace, her internal mental state was of a high degree of concern and this forced her to look at her own self .

She was the most beautiful woman for so many people. But did she think she was beautiful ? Yes she did ,but every actresses nightmare is age and she was no exception. For years she was doing ocassional cosmetic surgeries the effects of which can be clearly seen

She always came across as a little uptight but that's because she built a psychological wall around her as she was scared of anybody to really see what's going on within her. She was panicky about anybody knowing what her insecurities were.

Not because of her fault, but because she was thrust with fame from a very young age it never gave her a chance to be independant and be what she could really be and what she really wanted to be

She had to put on the make up and be somebody else not just infront of the camera,but also to put a psychological make up to hide her real self behind the camera.

She was being constantly directed by the motives of her parents,her relatives, her husband and to an extent even her own children .. She was scared whether her daughters would be accepted or not like most star parents do

Sridevi is actually a child trapped in a woman's body ..she is naive as a person, but suspicious because of her bitter experiences which is not a very good combination . Keeping the speculations on her death aside I generally don't say " Rest In Peace" after people die, but in her case I want to really say this because I very strongly believe that she would finally and truly rest in peace now for the first time in her life because she died

From my personal experience with her, the only time I ever saw her in peace was in front of the camera that too only between Action and Cut ..That's because she could cut off the harsh reality and escape into her own fantasy world

That's why now I am sure she will be at peace forever because she's finally far far away from what gave her and was giving her so much pain

RIP Sridevi, but I assure u that the world won't rest in peace for doing this to you

We the fans and your near ones have given you only suffering by making you slog in every which way ever since you were a child but you gave us only joy and happiness. Yes it's not a fair deal but it's too late to do anything now .

I now have visions of you flying like a free bird across heavenly land scapes with true peace and happiness in your eyes.

I don't believe in reincarnation but I truly want to believe in it now because we fans in our next birth deserve to experience you once again and this time we will try our best to make amendments and make ourselves worthy enough to deserve you

Please give us that one chance Sridevi because we all truly love you

I can go on writing like this but I can't stop my tears any more... RGV

Mish, I'm not sure if I agree with the name dropping in this letter. Airing an actress' dirty laundry in public after she's departed from the world is unjustified in my opinion. I understand RGV had a personal association with Sridevi and is probably emotionally overwhelmed by her untimely death, but some things are better left concealed. As an icon, she should be remembered for her performances, her grace, and her success; not her personal life. In the past two days, we've also seen journalism at its worse in India. I've watched Aaj Tak, ABP news, NDTV, and India Today for their coverage on this case. Twisting the case into a murder mystery and perpetuating Boney Kapoor as the murderer despite confirmation of no foul play has been very unprofessional of the Indian press. Was Sridevi's life worth less than the coveted TRPs of Indian television? 😭

I agree with Mishal:

Are you'll so bored n in such desperation to generate news that u'll have to humiliate this Indian icon. #EndOfJournalism https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/sridevi-death-and-circus-tv-reporter-even-jumped-bath-tub-77103 ... #RIPSridevi

1/2

She has left behind a legacy let's cherish n get inspired by it in stead of looking at gaining points of the speculations involving her demise.. Seriously? This day marks the end of journalism for me.. #RIPSridevi https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/sridevi-death-and-circus-tv-reporter-even-jumped-bath-tub-77103 ...

Dazz, I completely agree that he should not have brought up any personal issues & named names.

When we should all be discussing solely about her acting career & celebrating her

accomplishments as an actor, a female Super star❤️

But RGV was being RGV, always speaks out about things he feels strongly about.

Maybe he felt compelled to mention it so not to tarnish her name & image

especially after all the frenzy by the super crazy Indian media

the past few days...Horribly disgusting of them 😡

I have to say I was astonished to see the kind of fandom she had from all across India.

She earned it, a well deserved one 👏.

But glad it's all over & hope her soul finally finds some much needed peace & solace now.

Seems like this letter from Boney Kapoor is the much needed closure.

Such beautiful heartfelt words from a loving husband ❤️.

It's impossible to imagine what her two beautiful girls must be going thru' .

Pray that they find the much needed strength to move forward & make their MOM proud.

RIP Sreedevi 😭

And if you guys are interested & have time, take a peek at this Global post made by fans on IF

It's overwhelming...

Beautiful words from a husband head over heels in love with his wife. 😭 Losing a spouse and a parent is the most devastating experience in life, Mish. It's worse that Boney and his daughters have to cope with such a tragic and unforeseen loss in the public eye. I just hope the Indian media grows a pair and stops the nonsense of speculation! Absolutely disgusting! 😡 I have to give it to Arjun Kapoor for stepping up to the plate and being a pillar of support to his dad and his step-sisters. His resentment towards Sridevi wasn't hidden from the world. In all honesty, it would be easy to just take a step back as a silent spectator. This shows that he's a bigger person as is his sister, Anshula. ❤️ Oh Mish, her final journey was so depressing! Even after death, the beauty illuminated from her face! She really looked like the literal epitomization of the word "Chandni". I felt as if the entire industry was present at her viewing. The anchors covering her viewing last night had said that a number television actors had also come to pay their last respects, but they only covered Manish Paul's entry. I wonder if Mishal had gone being a fan himself? Thanks for sharing the memoriam on IF, Mish. 🤗 Will be sure to take a look.

May your soul rest in peace, Sri. You will always be remembered as the queen of Bollywood!

Found this on her twitter... I guess from a dear fan of hers ...beautifully written

..Vo "chandani" na rahi

Gehra "sadma" de gayi

Zindagi bahut "chalbaaz" nikli

Sabse "judaai" de gyi

Bahut "lamhe" jine baki the

Badi jaldi "akhiri rasta" se chli gyi

Kash koi "mr. India" aaye

Or wo "nagina" lauta de..

Janhvi Kapoor pens down a heartfelt letter on her birthday

After Boney Kapoor, daughter Janhvi Kapoor pens down a heartfelt letter on Late Sridevi's untimely demise.

Saturday, March 03, 2018 | 12:25:59 PM IST (+05:30 GMT)
0 Comments | By Ami Sheth

It has been only 8 days that the Kapoor family has lost the lightning of their lives, Sridevi. While the actress breathed her last at Dubai hotel on February reportedly due to 'Accidental Drowning' and her untimely demise has still not sunk in anyone's mind.

After the cremation process of the legendary actress, Anil Kapoor shared a penned down letter on behalf of their family, while Boney Kapoor too recently shared a heart crunched letter on losing his the love of his life and today Sridevi's elder daughter Janhvi Kapoor pens down a letter. While, she has shared her lovable and emotional letter for her dearest mom with some memories by sharing the pictures of their family but, the caption written by her is all the more emotional than any daughter could have ever penned down.

With wholeheartedly, it feels bad to say that the young girl has lost her mother Sridevi just before her birthday. Yes, it's her birthday today and she turns 21-years-old.

Check out her letter for the late Sridevi:-

And here is her heart-wrenching caption:-

"On my birthday, the only thing I ask of all of you is that you love your parents. Cherish them and devote yourself to making them feel that love. They have made you. And I ask that you remember my mother fondly, pray for her soul to rest in peace. Let the love and adulation you'll showered on her continue and please know that the biggest part of my mother was the love she shared with papa. And their love is immortal because there was nothing like it in the whole world. Nothing as joyful and pure and no two people as devoted to one another as they were. Please respect that because it hurts to think anyone would ever try to tarnish it. Preserving the sanctity of what they had would mean the world not only to my mother but also to a man whose entire being revolved around her and her two children who are all that remains of their love. Me and Khushi have lost our mother but papa has lost his "Jaan". She was so much more than just an actor or a mother or a wife. She was the ultimate and the best in all these roles. It mattered a great deal to her to give love and to get love. For people to be good and gracious and kind. She didn't understand frustration or malice or jealousy. So let's be that. Let's be full of only good and give only love. That would make her happy, to know that even in death, she gave you all something. The courage and inspiration to fill yourselves with nothing but love and rid yourselves of bitterness in any way and form. That's what she stood for. Dignity, strength and innocence" (Sic).

Thank you for the love and support everyone has shown us in the past couple of days. It's given us hope and strength and we can't thank you all enough.
