Boney Kapoor is a broken man and the reason is too obvious. He lost his wife Sridevi who also was the love of his life about two months ago due to accidental drowning. Now, he is seen piecing his life back together and has recently revealed that he is finding moving on very difficult. His elder daughter Janhvi Kapoor’s first film Dhadak is all set to release this year and he is busy trying to make up for Sridevi’s presence in his daughters’ life. Speaking about this difficult phase he said that he is trying to be both a mother and a father to the children. He also said that since she was suddenly gone, these past months have been very difficult. Everything went on a freeze-pause in their lives. There were so many things left unsaid and undone but he is finally picking up the pieces again trying to put his life together for his kids’ sake. He revealed later that he has still not come to terms with Sridevi’s death and feels extremely empty.

Boney is making a biopic on Sridevi and has even registered three titles. He was present with his daughters in Delhi a few days ago to receive an award on behalf of Sri. She was awarded the best actress award for her smashing performance in Mom. On her passing away he had written in a press note, “To the world she was their Chandni… the actor par excellence… their Sridevi… but to me she was my love, my friend, mother to our girls… my partner. To our daughters, she was their everything… their life. She was the axis around which our family ran.”

At the time of this adversity, the entire Kapoor Clan stood by Boney and his daughters.

“Sridevi’s contribution to South cinema must not be underestimated” - Nagarjuna

The death of the legendary Sridevi came as a blow to all her friends, fans and co-stars. Nagarujuna who worked with her in Telugu and Hindi films says Sridevi’s death served up a lesson to him. “I still can’t believe she is gone. Life is so unpredictable. The suddenness of Sridevi’s death has made me appreciate my loved ones more. It’s important to live every moment positively and beautifully.”

Nagarjuna who was as shocked as the rest of the nation by Sridevi’s sudden demise, says her contribution to cinema cannot be undermined. “She was equally important to Hindi and South cinema. Her contribution to cinema in the South whether it was Malayalam, Telugu or Tamil, cannot be undermined. In Telugu I can vouch for her professionalism and talent. Sridevi could do anything.”

Nag recalls how Sridevi worked with both Nag and his father. “You won’t believe this. But she played my father (the legendary Akkineni Nageswara Rao, better known as ANR)’s daughter and then his romantic interest in several films. And then she was my co-star. No matter whom she was paired with, Sridevi was completely at home. It didn’t matter to her whether her leading man was my father or me. She was equally comfortable with both,” says Nag emotionally recalling his time with her.

“Her level of professionalism was to be seen to be believed. When she did Ram Gopal Varma’s Govinda Govinda with me she was full of fun and enjoyment in front of the camera. The minute it was switched she went back into her shell. She was an astonishing artiste. I will miss her for as long as I work,” says Nag emotionally.
