There are many actresses in Bollywood who have made their mark in the industry. However, only a few of them turned out to be superstars. Today, we will discuss one of them. She was the first Indian heroine to charge Rs 1 crore as her fees, giving tough competition to A-list actors. Over the years, this actress worked with many big stars, gave three blockbusters with Rishi Kapoor, two blockbusters with Amitabh Bachchan, and more hits with other stars. However, this actress faced a tragic end. If you are wondering who we are talking about, then it is the one and only, the late actress Sridevi.
Though Sridevi is not alive today, her work, her performance, and her aura still live happily among audiences' hearts. Sridevi has worked with many heroes in her career. She has done hit films with almost everyone. The late actress has also worked in 16 films with Jeetendra. Out of these, 8 of her films were hits.
Sridevi's pairing with Anil Kapoor turned out to be a huge hit. The actress has worked with Kapoor in movies like Judaai, Laadla, and more. The duo did a total of 14 films together, out of which 7 became blockbusters.
When Sridevi and Sunny Deol featured in ChaalBaaz and Nagina, audiences went gaga. Sridevi's fans wanted to see more of her work with Sunny. During Sridevi's career span, the actress did six films with Sunny, and only 3 became hits.
Sridevi has also worked with Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan. With Rishi, the late actress gave the blockbuster Chandni, whereas with Amitabh, Sridevi's film Khuda Gawah was a commercial success.
However, do you know there is an actor with whom Sridevi gave the maximum number of hits? Yes, and this actor is not from Bollywood, but South! We are talking about none other than Rajinikanth.
Rajinikanth was the only hero with whom Sridevi worked in the maximum number of films. Both of them worked together in 19 films, but 10 of them proved to be hits. In ChaalBaaz, Rajinikanth even outshone Sunny Deol.

Divya Dutta On Staying Single: 'There's A Lot Of Male Attention Coming My Way But...'
Last Updated: Divya Dutta opens up about choosing not to marry, embracing self-love and companionship, and talks future projects Nastik and Netflix hit Chhaava. While Bollywood often celebrates fairytale weddings, some stars are choosing a different path—one of independence and self-assurance. Among them is acclaimed actor Divya Dutta, who recently opened up about why she's comfortable not getting married and how she views companionship in a more meaningful light. In a heartfelt interview with Hindi Rush, Divya shared her personal stance on marriage and the kind of relationship she truly values. 'If you find a good partner, it's great to be married. If not, life moves on beautifully. It's better to nurture yourself than stay in a dysfunctional marriage. Rather than lowering yourself in a relationship, it's better to love yourself. There's a lot of male attention coming my way and I enjoy that, but a relationship should happen when you connect. You feel that the person can hold your hand. If that isn't there, I have many lovely friends around me, and I am there for myself." Making it clear that she's not seeking marriage, Divya added, 'I don't want to get married, but I would love to have a companion with whom I can travel. And if not, then I'm still happy. You know, my best friend sent me a quote — a person asks, 'Why are you single? You are beautiful, attractive, caring,' and I say, 'I think I'm overqualified.' There comes a time when you look for completeness outside, which is not necessary. It's not necessary that you'll only be complete when a good partner enters your life. I used to have that misconception. I used to wear my heart on my sleeve — but not anymore." Professionally, Divya continues to soar. She was last seen in the historical drama Chhaava, where she shared the screen with Vicky Kaushal, Rashmika Mandanna, and Akshaye Khanna. The film, directed by Laxman Utekar, was a major commercial success, earning Rs 807.88 crore globally. It's currently available to stream on Netflix. Looking ahead, Divya will star in the upcoming film Nastik, alongside Arjun Rampal. Directed by Shailesh Verma, the film also features Ihana Dhillon and Harshaali Malhotra. The official release date has not been announced yet. First Published: June 11, 2025, 16:10 IST

"This is someone we should view in the same manner we do Benjamin Netanyahu. This is a war criminal."His Muslim heritage has also drawn vitriol, but Mamdani has turned the attacks into campaign fodder."When you're the first Muslim elected official to run for mayor, people say some pretty wild things," he quipped in a New York City—America's largest metropolis—grappling with a cost-of-living crisis, housing shortages, transit issues, and deep inequality, the next mayor faces enormous challenges.
