Sridevi's death has left the film industry distraught. On Sunday, her Mr India director Shekhar Kapur posted a photo of himself with Sridevi from the sets of the film, writing: "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."
This is what Shekhar Kapur posted.
Sridevi and Anil Kapoor starred in over 12 films together. Their credits include Laadla, Judaai, Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja, Ram-Avtar, Sone Pe Suhaaga and Joshilaay. The standouts, however, are Mr India, in which Sridevi played a journalist on the track of an invisible superhero, played by Anil Kapoor; and Yash Chopra's Lamhe, in which Sridevi was cast in a double role of a mother and daughter.
Sridevi has not been flown back to Mumbai yet. As Bollywood waits, her colleagues and friends from the film fraternity converged on Anil Kapoor's home.
Sridevi, recipient of the Padma Shri, was seen in last year's MOM. She filmed a special appearance for Shah Rukh Khan's Zero, which releases later this year.
