Sridevi was like a bird in a cage, says filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma - Page 3

I don't understand this guy. If he liked and cared for Sridevi that much, why spread stories about her unhappiness before her body is even laid to rest? Would her children want to hear that their mom was secretly suffering and sad and spend her life in misery? Have some compassion for those that are truly affected by this.

Anyway, nobody knows anyone that well and that is even more true with celebrities. We all form our own narratives based on snippets of information or interviews and it has much more to do with our own feelings and life experiences than it does with them. Every celebrity becomes a different persona for different fans. At that point, you only really love the vision you have of them, not the actual person because you do not know the actual person.

The same is true even for Ramu. He knew of only what he saw on his set and he created her own mystique in his head about who she is and what her motivations are. At the end of the day, sometimes even family members do not truly know what is happening inside someone's brain and heart so to think some outsider would know is far fetched.

or did sridevi okayed it.

but then maybe its all rumors, like anonymous says-I agree with anon, we don't know the truth, gopal should shut up. go make another aag...

but this much I say, my mom is a makeup artist, and trust me ...most of her young clients, ages from 14 to 20 have their lips injected and they say they are inspired by Kylie Jenner. with that...hallelujah!!
oh no, my mom don't inject any needles for anyone, she just cake the faces, its ok, no harm in looking beautiful for those special days.

If you've followed South Cinema and gossip much of what he is saying is very true especially about Sridevi's mom. She was a terrible, managing stage mother and Sri was basically the golden goose of the family. She was a child actress and she made her debut at 13 or 14, that should tell you something right there. There is a history there, unhappy history with many South superstars that perhaps I will say later, not today. Sri was unhappy, she even chose Boney I think because he offered her marriage and she was pregnant with Jhanvi before they got married. Sri was not happy that is a narrative that has been around for years, decades even. But she seemed happy as a mom. That much seemed evident if you knew her story. I am not sure of Boney and how happy they were, but she seemed like a very happy and content mom. She seemed certainly a better mom than her own mother was alleged to be.

We certainly don't know the actual person but if you hear consistent stories for decades, it must have some element of truth is my take on it.

I felt No one knew her personally coz she kept it private and never spoke about it.

From what I know, her mom was overprotective and used her as a golden goose which she denied and her sister looted her money by staking a claim on her mom's properties and money which was bought from Sridevi's money.

Her interview with Vir singhvi in 2017, she said she never went shopping as her mom did it for her, her full day was spent on the sets.

Anyway, Boney and Sridevi were in love and people usually are quick to blame the lady, the onus falls on the guy, he is the one married and has a responsibility towards his family.

anyway what happened , happened and it was sad for mona and her kids but all those who said Madhuri was spotless...I disagree

Madhuri too was in a full feldged affair with a much married sanjay dutt and in fact, his then wife richa was sichk and dying. i remember her daughters open letter to Madhuri requesting her to leave her dad ...

Richa passed away

But then the Sanjay Dutt was arrested and Madhuri broke off with him ..

so there's a dark shade in every hero and heroine's life. No one in the industry is spotless

@bold idk dude, i feel everything wrong with what she did, I would have appreciated if she had gone madhuri's route and didn't break a full house to be relevant. Bonny is the biggest douche, he went for a wife who is more popular and pretty but Sridevi ? She was mona's friend, backstabbing and sleeping with her husband behind her back is pretty shitty thing to do..it would have been a different situation had mona and boney divorced... and to think boney speaks how he fell in love with her everytime is pretty disgusting.

Sridevi might be shy, naive, amazing actress and probably a nice human but what she did to Mona and her children is horrible.

Madhuri is relevant today isn't she ? Her and anil had blazing chemistry but she didn't try break Anil's family and Anil was decent enough to be loyal to his fam.
