An actor is not only known for the person they are, but for the many characters they play. A good actor embodies the role they are given and an excellent actor leaves a bit of themselves with the role they play, making it come alive.
According to co-actors and fellow artistes, Sridevi was the latter.
She would work hard to bring her characters alive, make them more believable and therefore more memorable.
Now that she is gone, fans, friends, colleagues, contemporaries and all those who have been touched by her many onscreen avatars as well as her own personality, fondly remember how she had made a difference in their lives.
Internet sensation Priya Prakash Varrier also shared her sadness over the loss of an iconic actress such as Sridevi.
One of her fanclubs tweeted out a video recording of her crooning to ‘Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna’ as a tribute to everyone’s beloved Chandni.
Equal rights activist Harish Iyer, who works for the rights of LGBTQ community, shared his lifelong connect with the beloved superstar and the experience of sharing the same stage with her on Satyameva Jayate, in this touching tribute.
A part from the celebrities and social influencers, there are the millions of fans of Sridevi who took to social media and poured out the love and respect they have for the actress.
Rest in power, Sridevi. You will live on through the art that you leave behind.
