SRIDEVI LOVES SALADS

Have you seen Sridevi lately? She’s looking fantabulous. Slim, svelte... almost ravishing.

But what does she eat? Salads, salads and more salads. We saw the actress recently at a birthday party strut her plate with salads and almost no other food. Not only does the diva eat well, she also makes her daughters Jahnvi and Khushi eat healthy, too. So when she was filling their food plates, she had a vigorous mix of salads plus a few goodies to make the girls happy. What about her husband Boney Kapoor? Well, Sri tries her level best to make Boney eat healthy as well. She has cut down on his chocolate eating totally, and she has also asked him to give up his love for green chillies. Of course, she still can’t get Boney to live on salads and sprouts only, but at least she is instilling healthy eating habits in Boney, who is a typical Punjabi with a fondness for good food.

SRIDEVI IS BACK

After a lambi Judaai also her last film with Anil Kapoor and Urmila Matondkar way back in 1997, Sridevi will now be seen on the big screen again.

Sridevi will play Hansika Motwani’s mother in the forthcoming South film “Maappilai”. The film stars Dhanush in the male lead, he is the son in law of superstar Rajinikanth and is also known as the Tollywood remake king. Sridevi decided to do the film as it is a remake of Rajnikanth’s film of the same title.

Soruces say, “The original film had a rich and conceited mother-in-law who is reviled throughout the film but director Suraaj had deleted those parts for his film as he doesn’t want to imitate Sridevi in a bad light for her comeback.”

There was also news that Shekhar Kapur who has penned the sequel to the blockbuster Mr. India has been realistic Sridevi to return to the sequel. Even husband Boney Kapoor had been working on Sri’s comeback and for now it seems like Sridevi is happy to be getting back to her roots.

You will be missed back here in B-town Sridevi.
