Cinema more organised now, says Sridevi
INDIA: Sridevi, the reigning queen of the 1980s and 1990s who made a
comeback with “English Vinglish” after 15 years, finds filmdom a lot
more organised now.
“Cinema has changed for good. Every department has people and it has
become well organised,” said Sridevi, who is married to producer Boney
Kapoor.
The 49-year-old has been part of blockbuster movies like “Chaalbaaz”
and “Mr.India”. She bid adieu to grease paint after the 1997 hit
“Judai”.
She feels that the interaction between celebrities and media has also
grown. “Earlier, it was totally different because there were only a few
magazines and you would just talk about the films if at all you were
working in any at that time. The promotions have also become so lavish
now,” she said.
The actress is still in the process of reading scripts. Sridevi says
her daughters Jhanvi and Khushi show a lot of interest in her career.
“They discuss about my films, but they don't discuss their careers in
films. My elder daughter's (Jhanvi's) exams are going on and at the
moment she is only studying. I don't want to distract her or put
something in her mind,” she said.
