The world is still reeling from the shock of Bollywood star, Sridevi’s death. Her fans, colleagues have been expressing their disbelief and love for the actor since the news broke. 

One such heartfelt tribute has come from her Mr.India director, Shekhar Kapur.

Remembering her performance in the iconic film, he penned down a heartfelt message on Instagram for the late actor. 

It’s unbelievable that you passed. Unexpected, sudden and shocking. It shook us all. We were waiting for Mr India 2 ! Honestly .. that film should have been made by now… 

Kapur also recalled the day and times when Sridevi stood by her and fought for what was right. 

“I remember when everyone was going at me for a film that was threatening to fall apart .. you fought for me like a tigress. You were so loyal to your Directors.” 

Here’s what he wrote: 

You were the most exciting actress I ever worked with. Your energy on camera was scintillating. There was not a moment on screen that you did not have the audience in your grip. Be it an emotion, a comic moment, a dance. You were so innovative. You always did far far more than I asked of you . You were never less than surprising. As a human being you were incredibly supportive of those you were close to. I remember when everyone was going at me for a film that was threatening to fall apart .. you fought for me like a tigress. You were so loyal to your Directors. It’s unbelievable that you passed. Unexpected, sudden and shocking. It shook us all. We were waiting for Mr India 2 ! Honestly .. that film should have been made by now .. It’s devastating for Boney, your daughters and your family .. I know up there you will still be looking forward to your daughters debut .. but we will never get over your presence on this Earth, Sri Devi ! #sridevi #mrindia #film

Sridevi has given us several memorable performances in a career spanning decades. But her film Mr India unarguably remains our all time favourite. 

Be it ‘Hawa Hawaii,’ 

or the Charie Chaplin avataar.

Her charm in this masterpiece is unforgettable and we, unfortunately, won’t see her anymore.

You will be missed, Sridevi.
