Sirf aap nahi, mujhe lagta hai unke millions of millions fans rahe hain hum sab. Chahe ladke hon ya ladkiyan, aaj bhi hum unki film dekhte hain, unka kaam dekhte hain toh chehre pe ek muskurahat rehti hai. Aisa nahi lagta ki woh humare beech mein nahi hain. (Absolutely, Srideviji actually was such a personality. Not just you, I think she has millions and millions of fans among all of us. Whether boys or girls, even today, when we watch her films, see her work, a smile comes on our faces. It doesn't feel like she is not among us)."

Honestly, I find it a bit strange when people run fan clubs for deceased celebrities for years. But then I remember how Sridevi brought so much joy to millions - she deserved every bit of this love. Rajeev Khandelwal's words were beautiful too.

Sridevi was not just an actress - she was an emotion for an entire generation. From Chandni to Laadla, she ruled our hearts. And Boney ji's gratitude shows he understands the connection fans had with her. Beautiful gesture all around.

Living abroad, I see how much the diaspora still adores Sridevi. She bridged Bollywood and the world like few others. This fan club with millions of followers across Instagram and Facebook proves her legacy is truly global. Well done to Deepa Bhatia for keeping that flame alive.

I wish shows wouldn't use deceased celebrities for TRP so openly. But Boney ji's response was classy - no drama, just genuine gratitude. Also, Rajeev Khandelwal is such a good host, he handled it with grace. Hope the show does well tomorrow.
