Fans of the late veteran actress, Sridevi have still not been able to come to terms with the tragic and untimely demise of their favourite actress. Fans from around the world were in a state of grief and shock when the news started making rounds online of the actresses accidental drowning in Dubai.
However, according to Sridevi’s uncle, Venugopal Reddy, her fans aren’t the only ones battling grief. In an interview to a Telugu news channel, Reddy has claimed that the actress passed away with a lot of pain and grief in her heart. That she only wore a brave smile for the world when in actuality she passed away in grief.
He further stated in the interview, that the cause of this grief was husband Boney Kapoor’s financial circumstances, saying that they even had to sell Sridevi’s properties just to clear off some debts, “What we knew was Boney Kapoor lost a lot of money in few films and they sold Sridevi’s properties to make up for the losses. And Sridevi always had that pain in her heart. Sridevi lived in pain and passed away with a lot of pain in her heart. She was not at peace. She wore a smile on her face for the world but she went through a lot inside her.”
“Boney produced a film which never saw the light of the day, and they were financially going through a tough phase. Sridevi sold her properties and cleared those debts to get life back on track. And that was the main reason why Sridevi got back to acting in films”, he added.
Sridevi’s family, after having scattered her ashes in Rameswaram and Haridwar have now left for her prayer meet which is to take place in Chennai.
