Actress Isha Koppikar, who has an extensive body of work in both Bollywood and the South film industries, recently shared that none of it would have been possible without the influence of the late legendary actress Sridevi. In a conversation with an entertainment portal, Isha revealed that Sridevi was her biggest inspiration for joining the film industry.
During the interview, she explained how Sridevi had always been her singular inspiration in acting. She described the late actress as possessing an unmatched brilliance that set her apart from other performers. While acknowledging Sridev’s other contemporaries, Isha emphasized how it was the ‘hawa hawai’ girl who remained the reason that she joined the industry, calling her extraordinary and expressing difficulty in speaking about her in past tense.
The actress also recalled a memorable meeting with Sridevi at a Diwali party, where they spoke briefly for about five minutes. Isha shared that she wanted to be respectful of Sridevi’s personal space and introduced herself, only to be pleasantly surprised when Sridevi responded warmly and said she already knew who she was. Describing her as gentle and soft-spoken, Isha noted that Sridevi was reserved and quiet in person a striking contrast to her vibrant on-screen persona.
