By: Tupaki Desk | 14 Aug 2024 4:11 AM GMTSridevi, a name synonymous with Indian cinema, ascended from child stardom to unparalleled heights as a leading lady. Her versatility knew no bounds, effortlessly transitioning between glamorous roles and those demanding depth and nuance. She shared the screen with legendary actors like NTR, Ayannar, Krishna, Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna, and Venkatesh, leaving an indelible mark on the industry.
However, amidst her illustrious career, a profound desire remained unfulfilled. Sridevi harbored a fervent wish to portray iconic characters like Parvati in 'Devadasu' and Laila in 'Lailamaznu'. Inspired by Rakhi's captivating dual role in 'Sharmili', she often lamented missed opportunities. One such instance was when she declined the lead role in Bharti Raja's 'Kilekke Pogum Rain' due to prior commitments. While the decision was professionally sound, it filled her with regret as she watched the role catapult Radhika to stardom.
Sridevi's candid admission to losing out on such promising roles reveals a side to the legendary actress often overshadowed by her glamorous image. Her passion for her craft and her unwavering pursuit of excellence are evident in her words. It is a poignant reminder that even the greatest stars have unfulfilled dreams, adding a layer of human relatability to her already iconic persona.
