Namaste Bollywood buffs! Today, we dive into the glitzy world of the ’80s and ’90s, where our very own Mr. India, Anil Kapoor, found himself in quite the filmi dilemma. Let’s unravel this tale of stardom jitters, courtesy of your favorite Bollywood detective, Khabree Kiran! 🎬
Anil Kapoor vs. Sridevi: The Stardom Saga
Bhaiyon aur behno, in the dazzling days of Bollywood, Anil Kapoor and Sridevi were the jodi everyone adored. Whether it was the time-travel romance of Lamhe or the invisible antics of Mr. India, their on-screen chemistry was the stuff of box-office gold! But wait, kya aapko pata hai? Rumor has it, Anil was a bit khafa with Sridevi’s superstar status. After all, she rocked the screen with everyone from Jeetendra to Mithun and Rishi Kapoor!
Sridevi, the ultimate chameleon of acting, had fans eating out of her hand, thanks to her impeccable performances. Her comic timing with Anil was a hit, and together, they graced around fourteen films. Phir kya hua? Well, the aurora of Sridevi faded in 2018, leaving a void in Bollywood and in the hearts of countless fans.
As the years rolled by, Sridevi continued to wow us with films like English Vinglish and Mom. Meanwhile, a little birdie, aka senior journalist Subhash K Jha, spilled the beans in a Filmbeat report that Anil couldn’t quite digest Sridevi’s stardom. It was like eating that extra spicy paani puri—bitter yet irresistible! This led to our Jhakaas actor reportedly turning down roles opposite her in blockbusters like Chandni and Chaalbaaz. Talk about missed opportunities!
In Chandni, it was Rishi Kapoor and Vinod Khanna who romanced Sridevi, while Sunny Deol and Rajinikanth donned the lover boy hats in Chaalbaaz. Ah, the drama!
Sridevi’s last full feature was the heartfelt Mom in 2017, and she made a special appearance in Shah Rukh Khan’s Zero. As for Anil, he’s been keeping busy with films like Savi and Fighter.
