What Boney Kapoor Said About Sridevi's Biopic
When asked by DNA last year if he's considering a biopic on Sridevi, the producer of Maidaan told DNA, "She was a very private person, and her life should remain private. I don't think there ever will be, till the time I live, I will not allow this to happen."
Earlier, talking to The New Indian, Boney Kapoor opened up about his wife's death. He stated, "It was not a natural death, it was an accidental death. I thought I would never speak about it because I spoke about it for almost 24-48 hours together, when I was being investigated, and interrogated and that is how I got a clean chit from the Dubai police. In Fact, the officer said that we had to do this, we had to go through this because there was a lot of pressure from the Indian media. They discovered there was no foul play. I went through all the interrogation, including the lie detector. The report which came clearly stated that it was an accidental death by drowning."
