The untimely demise of Sridevi has saddened the industry and her family. Her comeback in Bollywood with Gauri Shinde’s English Vinglish and Ravi Udyawar's Mom was welcomed with great applause. As per the reports, Karan Johar was keen to cast the legendary actress in his film starring Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt and Sanjay Dutt.
Karan revealed the same on the reality show India’s Next Superstars. A source from the sets of the show said to a leading Indian daily, “Karan revealed that Sridevi was elated when he proposed to launch her daughter Janhvi in Dhadak. Exactly a week later, he went to her residence again to ask if she can be a part of another Dharma film that he had conceptualized. Sridevi had loved the idea of the movie and they were supposed to begin shooting in April. However, life struck with its uncertainty and Sridevi was taken away before Karan had a chance to work with her for the first time.”
Karan Johar further added that he is a fan of Sridevi and had all the popular songs of Sridevi stored in a cassette named Best of Sridevi. “Karan would watch it repeatedly because he was a big fan. He also shared that Shekhar Kapoor (who directed Mr India) had accepted a challenge from Feroz Khan (who’d made Jaanbaaz), that nobody can make Sridevi look as sexy as he did in a chiffon saree. The Mr India song “Kaate Nahi Katate” with her in a blue chiffon sari was shot as a direct consequence of that challenge,” the source said.
