Almost a year ago from today, Indian cinema lost a gem - Sridevi. The legendary actress passed away, at the age of 54, in Dubai due to accidental drowning on February 24, 2018. The nation mourned for her. You can imagine the sense of loss by the fact that she was cremated with state honours and also received a gun salute at her funeral. She has left behind a legacy of work. She has worked in 300 films in a career spanning over several decades. Here, we are going to talk about the best songs that the late actress has featured in. Because without these songs, many of us would not have had a dancing queen to look up to.

Sridevi has featured in some numbers that remain iconic to date. Her songs are hit at weddings and house parties. Her presence has made many songs a hit. So much that those numbers are remixed for the new generation every now and then. Here are just a handful of our favourite dance numbers featuring Sridevi. This Was the Last Picture Sridevi Uploaded on Instagram.

Mere Hathon Me 

No wedding sangeet is complete without performance on this one. Ladies gather up once this song starts playings. We can't thank Sridevi enough for dancing her heart out on this one.

Na Jane Kahan Se Aayi Hai

What can we say about this song? It is the perfect embodiment of #IDGAF.

Hawa Hawaii

The song was the true blue dance number when it came to letting your freak flag fly high. The number was just as empowering as kitsch it was. The new generation might have heard it in Tumhari Sulu, but the Mr India number is the evergreen one.

Main Teri Dushman

If women are dancing on Mere Hathon Me at a wedding, you can find men dancing to the tunes of Main Teri Dushman for some reason. Such is the cultural impact of the song that came out in 1986, that Naagin dance has become a legit but unofficial ritual at weddings.

The queen that was Sridevi, she will always be missed. She will always be remembered by the awesomeness she has left behind through these songs.
