The mural which is a look of hers from the movie Gurudev, was being given finishing touches until yesterday. The wall painting is part of Ranjit Dahiya‘s Bollywood Art Project. Interestingly, the late actress also loved to paint. She also used to love making portraits of Michael Jackson, who she was a huge fan of.
Sridevi left for heavenly abode on February 24, 2018. The death of Hindi cinema’s first female superstar left the country in a massive state of shock. The entire nation mourned the death of Sridevi as she died in Dubai. Boney Kapoor and his daughters, Khushi and Janhvi have been really strong all this while, still trying to cope with her loss. Karan Johar, Manish Malhotra, Sonam Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez and everyone else from the Hindi film industry attended Sridevi's funeral.
