Shekhar Kapur: Sridevi Was 'Almost In Denial Of Her Stardom'
Many years ago, there was a very famous movie star in India named Sridevi.
She made lots of movies and millions of people loved her.
A movie director named Shekhar Kapur made a movie with her called Mr India.
He recently shared a sweet memory about her.
He remembered that even though Sridevi was one of the biggest stars, she stayed very humble.
When the camera was not filming her, she did not go into her own private room.
Instead, she just sat quietly on her regular chair.
He said it was like she did not even believe how famous she was.
Mr Kapur said that actors today often hide in their trailers, but Sridevi did not do that.
This memory shows how kind and down-to-earth she was.
Mr India director Shekhar Kapur paid tribute to actress Sridevi.
Kapur recalled that Sridevi was remarkably grounded on set despite being one of the biggest stars in Indian cinema.
When the camera was not focused on her, Sridevi would quietly sit in her chair instead of retreating to a private trailer.
Kapur wrote that Sridevi was "almost in denial of her stardom."
Kapur contrasted Sridevi with "actors today," who he said would disappear into their trailers.
