Renowned actress Jaya Prada recently spoke about late veteran actress Sridevi's untimely demise. "Sridevi was her own competition and she had set goal for herself at every step in her life," she said. "When we worked together in films, we used to compete against each other. It was a healthy competition," she added. The actress further recalled that the two had acted together in 15 Hindi and Telegu films and were constantly competing with each other, be it delivering a dialogue or giving an expression. In a career that spanned 50 years, Sridevi acted in over 300 films.
The actress said that she still couldn't believe that Sridevi wasn't amongst them anymore. "When I woke up to watch the television, it was a big shock not just for the film industry and her fans but for all the people," she said. She further said that Sridevi was a very caring mother. "She wanted to see her daughter Jhanvi becoming a good actor like her. She, however, left us before watching her daughter making the debut," Jaya concluded. Sridevi truly was a wonderful actress and her loss has left the entire nation in sorrow. May her soul rest in peace.
