Madhuri has her own aura, however, Sri is above every comparison. Indian Film Industry hasn’t anything so versatile and flawless and audience captivating actress before. There was an interview from Vidya Balaan where she talks about how the directors used to be confused about shooting Sri in dance scenes, if her upper body was captured in the camera, directors would feel that she’s expressing through her legs and that the legs were left out, and vice versa while shooting her legs only. That is what is called screen presence and acting.
Sri is unmatched. Madhuri is good but very much over-hyped. Tabu is at same level as Sri and Vidya can come close to both. None else. But both Tabu and Vidya dont have that mass appeal and did not reign over the hearts of millions that Sri did, Sri does !! :)
