Shabana Azmi, a veteran actress, paid a heartfelt tribute to the late legendary actress Sridevi. She remembered Sridevi for her remarkable versatility and the wide range of characters she brought to life on screen. On the occasion of Sridevi's birthday, Shabana took to social media to reflect on her extraordinary talent. She shared Sridevi's picture and wrote, "There will never be another Sridevi... but we remain indebted for the varied characters we watched you play. Now comic, now serious, impish, dramatic, glamorous, fab dancer... there was nothing you couldn't do... remembering you on your birthday." In the image, Sridevi is seen dressed in a graceful white saree. Reacting to the post, Sridevi's husband and filmmaker Boney Kapoor commented, "Love you Shabanaji." Priyanka Chopra remembered Sridevi on her birth anniversary by unveiling the first look of her upcoming biography, "Empress: The Definitive Biography of Sridevi." The biography, penned by Dhiraj U Kumarr and published by Westland Books, explores Sridevi's remarkable life and career, as well as her enduring influence on Indian cinema. Amitabh Bachchan described Sridevi as "the epitome of unmitigated talent." Sridevi would have turned 63 on August 13. With a career spanning nearly five decades, she was widely regarded as India's first female superstar. She won the National Film Award and passed away on February 24, 2018, in Dubai after suffering a cardiac arrest.
