Sridevi was one of India's finest actresses.
Sridevi, who was a part of the Indian movie industry since she was four years old, passed away suddenly on February 24, 2018.
There are so many things that made Sridevi iconic.
We celebrate Sridevi's life and cinema by remembering everything that made us fall in love with her. Time and time again.
Sridevi grew up before our very eyes
Sridevi started her acting career at the age of four in the Sivaji Ganesan starrer, Kandan Karunai (1967).
She had a brilliant career in Southside cinema before moving to Bollywood.
She was last seen in 2017's Mom, which won her a posthumous National Award.
Queen of Expressions
You couldn't look at any place else when Sridevi was on the screen.
She's given us so many expressions to remember her by.
From naughty, goofy, seductive, melodramatic and child-like to dramatic, Sridevi aced them all.
Glamour Girl
Chennai Photographer A V Bhaskar recalls Sridevi's magic every time he shot the actress.
Chartbusters
Sridevi's songs were so popular that many of them have made a comeback in remixed versions.
She featured in timeless melodies as well as peppy dance numbers throughout her career.
Iconic Scenes
Can you forget that scene in Chaalbaaz, when Rohini Hattangady has to face Sridevi's wrath, and submit to her 'artistic make-up skills'?
Or the scene in Mr India, where Sridevi out Chaplins Charlie.
There are so many wonderful Sridevi scenes.
Best Films
In her long career, Sridevi has given us so many amazing films that it's almost impossible to make a list.
Yet, some movies are stand-out stuff.
Like her earliest Hindi film Sadma, where she plays a child woman opposite Kamal Haasan.
Or Lamhe, where she dazzles us as a mother, and daughter.
Or her comeback movie, English Vinglish, where she showed us that she was as brilliant as before.
Unique style
Sridevi wore many flamboyant outfits in her movies, and made her onscreen avatars larger-than-life.
The blue sari from Mr India ranks high among them.
But there are so many more, like the fruit hat from Hawa Hawai, the gold outfit from Nigahen, her white outfits in Chandni...
Exquisite memorabilia

Or her gold bridal outfit from Khuda Gawah?
Or her transparent raincoat from Chaalbaaz?
