Legendary actress Sridevi passed away in her bathtub (drowning) in UAE on February 24 last year, after attending the wedding ceremony of Mohit Marwah and Antara Motiwala in Al Jazirah Al Hamrah. A year on, her husband Boney Kapoor and children, Janhvi and Khushi, arrived in Chennai, her hometown, to mark the day with a pooja on Thursday.

Anil Kapoor and his wife Sunita, Tamil actor Ajith Kumar, ‘English Vinglish’ director Gauri Shinde along with her filmmaker-husband R Balki also joined Boney Kapoor at Sridevi’s maternal home. Talking to media, Boney confirmed that Thursday was Sridevi’s death anniversary according to the tithi. However, he did not wish to speak further on the subject.

Recently, in an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Anil Kapoor had said, “She was my brother’s wife, and my wife’s friend as they connected really well. Whenever we met there was always fun, laughter and humour. People like Sri ji are difficult to forget. Her body of work is fabulous and inspiring. Her films are still being seen and pictures still being published everywhere. She will always be missed.”

A few days back, filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma had shared a throwback picture of Sridevi, Salman Khan, Neelam Kothari and Rajinikanth. In the photo, Sridevi is seen dressed in a white kurta and salwar. Salman Khan’s parted hairstyle is the unusual style statement while Rajinikanth looked just as simple then as he is now. Take a look:

It is to be noted that Sridevi was one of the most talented actresses of Bollywood and had worked with several A-listers and not just dominated the Hindi industry, but also the Tamil industry.
