Boney Kapoor, who is a film producer, has registered titles such as Sri, Sridevi and Sri Ma'am with of one of the producer associations of Bollywood. "Boney-ji is serious about making a film on Sridevi-ji and hence he has registered these titles.

So far, two filmmakers have expressed their desire to make a film on the late actress - one is Ram Gopal Varma, old admirer of Sridevi, and the second is Hansal Mehta. RGV, who directed the actress in the films Kshana Kshanam and Govinda Govinda, said during a debate on television that he would make a film on Sridevi and he'll announce the project once the script is locked.

In March, Hansal Mehta told news agency IANS that he was about to approach Sridevi for a project and added: "I will always regret that I didn't approach her and could not make a movie with her. But I will make a film on her." The National Award-winning filmmaker also said that he may ask Vidya Balan to play Sridevi onscreen. "It (film on Sridevi) will be made. There are actors (who I have in my mind). I might approach Vidya Balan. I will make the film," Hansal Mehta told IANS.
