And there is no way that Madhuri could do a EV Or Mom. We saw what she did with Kalank which was also supposed to be Sridevi's lol
Madhuri was probably a big part of your childhood so I know the nostaglia is hard to let go of. But I was Aishwarya fan and I just recently accepted that she sucks. Its hard but doable.
Well then I agree to respectfully disagree.I am not some die hard Madhuri fan🙂.Honestly I don't find much difference in both Madhuri and Sridevi as they both were known as bubbly expressive dancing queens. Both belonged to an era where Bollywood was all about 'angry young man' kind of heros and both are regarded as true female superstars of Indian cinema. What I don't understand is why Sridevi is hyped so much. Was she good? Yes but both of there work profiles are nothing when compared to actresses nowdays. Today likes of kangu, Vidya,aloo, deepu, priyanka etc have had chance to do much better scripts and more complex characters than both of them so by that logic Sri and Mads aren't that great they are made out to be. I thought the question was about the star power because in terms of acting both of them would have been outperformed by many other actresses. Aise toh I think Urmila is a better actress than sridevi and can speak her dialogues clearly.
EV and Mom both were good scripts and nicely performed by Sri but they weren't some groundbreaking movies and neither was the character so difficult to play. Madhuri could have easily done them, so could have many other lesser known actresses.
