What you feel inside reflects on your face. So be happy and positive all the time.
Sridevi
I have always believed that your face is a mirror to your nature.
Sridevi
I always enjoyed being in front of the camera.
Sridevi
Once we decided to be in this industry, we have to be ready for everything. You have to be strong but hard working. No pain, no gain.
Sridevi
Acknowledgement and recognition from authoritative quarters are important to every artiste.
Sridevi
It is a heartening experience to know that you are loved and being missed.
Sridevi
I eat, sleep, and breathe movies. Though I didn’t understand the seriousness of films when I made my debut, I felt on top of the world.
Sridevi
I am always grateful for what I’ve got.
Sridevi
I don’t want to be a glamour doll. I want roles which provide me the scope to perform.
Sridevi
My husband himself is a producer, so we know the practical difficulties of producers.
Sridevi
My best friends are my children. We can have fun wherever we are together. They are my fashion icon.
Sridevi
All the films that I did, I didn’t plan them. They just came to me.
Sridevi
As an actor, you keep learning. There’s no end to it.
Sridevi
I am totally a director’s actor.
Sridevi
I had great memories as a child artist.
Sridevi
Acting is my passion since childhood, and I am happy to be in Tinsel Town at a very young age.
Sridevi
Give your children all the time and energy. They need to be your number one priority.
Sridevi
After marriage, every woman wants to settle down and have children. I have no regrets. I was occupied in my little world, enjoying each and every experience that came my way.
Sridevi
‘English Vinglish’ is simple; that’s why people like it. The film has simplicity and sensitivity. There is no melodrama. Some things have been conveyed just through expressions and no lines.
Sridevi
Being a mother is the most beautiful thing happened to me. I am enjoying every bit of it.
Sridevi
I just don’t want to do films for the sake of it.
Sridevi
All these labels and praises scare me. I am very simple, and I feel like a newcomer because I never stopped learning.
Sridevi
Audiences want to watch heroine-oriented films, and even writers are writing scripts for women. I am very happy to see this change.
Sridevi
Listen to your parents; respect them. They are well wishers.
Sridevi
I still approach every film and role like it’s my first.
Sridevi
Though I was the last child in the family, I was the first to enter the film industry.
Sridevi
You can never get used to success. Every time, it is a new thing. Every time, you feel different.
Sridevi
I was a good student. For a while, my parents did make me cope with school and films simultaneously. But after a point, this wasn’t practical. I had to choose between studies and films. I chose films.
Sridevi
Listen to your parents; respect them. They are well wishers.
Sridevi
In the ’80s, the brand-endorsement market was quite nascent.
Sridevi
Jewelery is my weakness. Whenever I see any jewellery, I am unable to control myself. My daughters or somebody has to cool me down.
Sridevi
I am a big fan of Meryl Streep.
Sridevi
I lived my ‘Mom’ character. I became Devaki.
Sridevi
My approach to selecting a film is very simple – it should touch my heart.
Sridevi
I love to paint.
Sridevi
In my career, many a times I was not able to be part of many films, and there were many reasons for them. But I don’t know why people still talk only about why I didn’t do ‘Bahubali 1’ and ‘2.’
Sridevi
I liked Rajamouli’s ‘Eega.’ He is a great technician, and I would be happy to get a chance to work with him.
Sridevi
I never decide or plan things.
Sridevi
I’ve been working since I was four. My life has only been about shootings, studios, and home.
Sridevi
Til marriage and motherhood happened, I was devoted to my work. I didn’t see anything beyond it.
Sridevi
Oil your hair and take a head massage as often as possible for better blood circulation.
Sridevi
Include ample fruits and vegetables in your diet and no fried or oily food.
Sridevi
I snack on sauteed peanuts, a whole fruit, lots of cheese – especially goat cheese – with multi-grain crackers and dark chocolate. These are my weaknesses. I make it a point to eat every two hours.
Sridevi
Lunch, for me, usually consists of lots of salad and sometimes smoked or grilled salmon, tofu, or feta cheese. I make sure to add a lot of greens to my salad. I accompany this with some dal.
Sridevi
God has been kind to me.
Sridevi
Mr. India’ was a turning point. Before that, Hindi moviegoers saw me just as a glamour girl. After ‘Mr. India,’ they felt I could act.
Sridevi
‘English Vinglish’ has given me so much respect. I am really thankful to director Gauri Shinde and her husband R. Balki. They blindly believed in me.
Sridevi
Love gives me the energy.
Sridevi
I am in awe of Hrithik Roshan. He is so fabulous. He is like an all-rounder. I think he deserves to be in a Hollywood film.
Sridevi
I loved Vidya Balan’s performance in ‘The Dirty Picture’ and ‘Kahaani.’
Sridevi
I am glad that I am in a position to select scripts I would be comfortable working in.
Sridevi
Mom’ is an emotional family drama that’s also thrilling. It’s the story about a mother and a daughter, their emotions, and how their lives change. Being a mother myself helped me understand those emotions better.
Sridevi
I play roles now that suit my age.
Sridevi
I felt that ‘English Vinglish’ was tailor-made for me since I found my character Shashi so relatable. Her simplicity and sensitivity attracted me towards the role.
Sridevi
I never thought I will ever get back into films when I took that break. ‘English Vinglish’ just happened.
Sridevi
It’s all about the script. I don’t want to do something which makes me feel uncomfortable. It should suit my image and age.
Sridevi
I have been wearing clothes designed by Maheshwari for many years now.
Sridevi
I feel every film has its own charm and gets made for a purpose.
Sridevi
Irrespective of which part of the world you live, family is special, and we’d do anything to protect our loved ones.
Sridevi
I started working since I was four years old. All I remember is I wanted to become a star.
Sridevi
I’m concerned about my children being so much in the media.
Sridevi
It’s more responsibility for star kids. Instead of having things easy, expectation is higher. They are compared to their parents, and that’s unfair.
Sridevi
The work should talk.
Sridevi
I have never felt the need to get agitated or hyper about anything in life.
Sridevi
When you have responsible children, half the battle is over. So, you don’t have to worry. But you are concerned. The concern will never go, and you’ll always be conscious about them.
Sridevi
I have never felt that I am a star. It never came to my mind.
Sridevi
For me, stardom is feeling happiness and being positive.
Sridevi
I am thankful to my fans and producers that I am on my toes all the time to do better. The day you feel you have achieved it all or you are something, then you are gone, and that thought never came to me.
Sridevi
It’s directors’ choice if they want to work with me. Not mine.
Sridevi
When the audience expects you to do a good job, you become more choosy. It becomes a responsibility.
Sridevi
Acting has always been my passion.
Sridevi
I wouldn’t want to change anything about my career.
Sridevi
My mom and I never thought that I would make my way into Bollywood. I was happy doing films down south.
Sridevi
My father was a lawyer. I was fascinated to become a lawyer, too.
Sridevi
I have not done much as an actor. There is no end for an artist, and my best is yet to come.
Sridevi
Direction and all is not my cup of tea. It’s not an easy job.
Sridevi
I believe in good films and bad films. Box-office business and all is my husband’s section. Sometimes I really get surprised when good films don’t do well… Sometimes you are really shocked when an average film does very well.
Sridevi
Exercise, yoga, and systematic life definitely helps you, but basically, you have to be happy.
