Standing in long queues…
Some with flowers…
And others with her pictures…
Thousands of fans thronged the streets of Mumbai on Wednesday,

… only to bid their beloved actor, Sridevi, a final adieu.
She was cremated with state honours today at Seva Samaj Crematorium in Vile Parle.
And her funeral was attended by her family and friends from film fraternity.
Paid my last respects to Sridevi. The entire industry was there grieving, some on the verge of breakdown. Such was her aura & magic in films. She lay there, beautiful in a red saree, serene in death & totally at peace. 😢
