'English Vinglish' director Gauri Shinde remembers Sridevi on her 3rd death anniversary, says 'wanted to work with her again and maybe every year'

It has been three years ever since legendary actress Sridevi passed away. While fans are taking to social media and paying their respects to the legendary actor, English Vinglish director Gauri Shinde opened up about her memories of Sridevi.

When asked if she was planning to work with Sridevi again, Gauri said, "She set the bar really high--not just performance-wise but also for an actor-director relationship. After working with her once, I was so spoiled, I couldn't accept anything less. I don't think I can work with someone I'm not very comfortable with, no matter how great or popular they are. I obviously wanted to work with her again and would have made a film with her now, and maybe every year!"

The filmmaker also revealed that she along with her entire team watched English Vinglish again after Sridevi's demise. She said, "After she passed away, the whole team of the film came together to watch the film once again to celebrate her craft but it was a very, very emotional and disturbing experience for me because it made me realise she's not there. My favourite scene in the film is the one where she, upset with her daughter, shares her sadness with Laurent and both of them talk in different languages. Then she says, “So good to talk without understanding”.

Sridevi died on February 24 in Dubai, due to accidental drowning. Her final on-screen appearance was a cameo in Aanand L Rai's Zero.
