Sri Devi

	13.08.1963 *
Place of Birth	Chennai

At the age of four Sri Devi acted in her first film Kandan Karunai, which starred the Tamil super hero Shivaji Ganesan. Being a superb dancer and actress Sri Devi made her career in Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam movies.

Her breakthrough in Hindi films came with Bharathi Raja's Solvan Sawan. In the 1980s she was Bollywood's top heroine acting opposite all the major heros - Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, Sanjay Dutt and others. She played doubled roles in Lamhe and Khuda Gawah; but she is of course mostly remembered for her songs and parody scenes.

Her performance in Shekhar Kapur's Mr. India remains among the highlights of commercial Indian cinema of the 1980s. Though Madhuri Dixit was the most sought after actress of the 1990s, Sri Devi played some remarkable roles, before she retired from the screen. The big budget venture Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja unfortunately failed at the box office, but is worth watching. In Army she teamed with Bollywood's new top star Shah Rukh Khan. She continued to act in South Indian movies throughout her career.

One of her last impressive films was the Malayalam movie Deva Ragam with Arvind Swamy. In 1998 Sri Devi married the film producer Boney Kapoor - Anil Kapoor's brother.
