Sridevi, Changed My Career: Manish Malhotra

The sudden demise of Bollywood superstar Sridevi has left fashion designer Manish Malhotra in a shock, who was very close to the actress. He took to Instagram to express his grief over the death of actress Sridevi.

“Sridevi and I first met in 1990 when she was already a superstar and I was beginning my career. Working with an icon I always called her “Ma’am” and that was a turning point in my career, as it was the beginning of many associations and a longstanding friendship beyond work.” –
