I cannot garner much sympathy for Sridevi because she married Boney Kapoor. Boney had a wife at that time, Mona. Mona had actually put Sridevi up in her own home when Sri was new to Mumbai, and Sri tied Boney a rakhi. When Mona found out that Sri was pregnant, she left Boney and filed for a divorce. While Boney is primarily to blame, Sri also had a friendship with Mona and in a way she stabbed Mona in her back because Mona was good to her. So yeah I have absolutely no sympathy for Sri. As for Madhuri, she is full of class in the way she conducts herself. She seems to get along with pretty much everyone. I am sure she is a diva as well, but she is a diva full of class. She took a break, got married to a guy and didn't break anybody's marriage, has two kids and has now returned to India and found work that she is suited for at her age. And it doesn't look like she got work done yet she looks very very good for her age.
Somehow the work that Sri got done ages her even more. Tom Cruise got work done but he looks amazing! Sri OTOH doesn't look that good, she looks very artificial and plastic, and her high eyebrows were too distracting for me. Even though she is only 5 years older than Madhuri, she doesn't look as good. But yes she looked tall on JDJ!!! Her voice is horrible.
Well we don't even know what would have happened. Watching Sridevi offscreen its hard to imagine that she can seduce any married man.. and its a known fact that mostly men take advantage of the situation, maybe Sridevi was gullible enough and when they realized about the pregnancy it was already too late as there was no other option for them but to get married.
Boney was the one who should have realize he has a wife and also children. Mona too reacted very strongly by cutting off all ties and got divorce quickly else we have seen how Dharmendar's first wife still compromised with Hema Malini, his second wife. But in no way I am encouraging it, just felt Mona was also not flexible at all. which is fine, but that put a heavy tax on her health.
Yeah it was famous for Mdhuri even during her hey days that her specialty is that she never had a problem with anyone ever and get along well with everyone in the industry.. infect Juhi chawla complimented her that she wants to be like her as Madhuri is always in a same pleasant mood which is a rarity.
But watching the different life journies of these two devas I must say that Madhuri saw a great upbringing with total peace of mind, smooth sheltered life and all love care to her with highest education and she was a laadli in her family as being the youngest child... films were only her own passion and interest... while Sridevi's life is full of thorns right from her childhood so I can still feel for her despite Boni Mona issue.
(I am one of the biggest fans of Madhuri)
Yeah I agree..Sridevi has ruined her nose.. what was the need to do it ? she had a fine nose with previous surgeries but with this new experiment she looks awkward...also I think she has done quite alot of work on her lips and face. while Madhuri still looks natural and very elegant.
I think sri shares the same life traits like Michael Jackson... both had seen a terrible childhood and adulthood, both were very insecure about their looks , both were extremely shy and nervous in person off the screen..but on screen they were sheer magic to say the least... even their childish voices are somewhat similar... I think the childhood traumas have not let their souls to be grownup, and they were still small insecure lost kids deep down their souls... imo.
