Sridevi breathed her last on February 24 after she suffered a massive cardiac arrest in Dubai.

The untimely death of the legendary actress Sridevi has left her family and fans in shock. The 54-year-old breathed her last on February 24 around 11 pm after suffering a major cardiac arrest in Dubai. A video of the late actress, which was taken two days ago from her nephew Mohit Marwah's wedding at Dubai is doing the rounds. The ‘Mom' actress looked all hale and hearty in it. While some of the family members returned from Dubai after the wedding, Sridevi, Boney and Khushi stayed back.

Here is the video:

A versatile actor, Sridevi made her Bollywood debut in 1978 with "Solva Sawan". But it was only after five years with Jeetendra-starrer "Himmatwala" that she gained commercial success. Her beguiling eyes, scintillating screen presence and acting prowess soon made her one of the most sought-after artistes in the Hindi film industry.
While films like 'Mawaali' (1983), 'Tohfa' (1984), 'Mr India' (1987) and 'Chandni' (1989) kept her at the top in the box-office game, her outings like 'Sadma' (1983), 'ChaalBaaz' (1989), 'Lamhe' (1991), and 'Gumrah' (1993) earned her critical acclaim.

Sridevi went on a hiatus for 15 years after starring in home production -- "Judaai" -- co-starring her brother-in-law Anil Kapoor and Urmila Matondkar. It was director Gauri Shinde's "English Vinglish" in 2012 that marked Sridevi's comeback.

Her nuanced performance as a middle-class woman, learning to speak English to feel accepted by her family, won accolades, and the film was also a commercial success. Last year, she was seen in revenge-drama -- 'Mom' -- opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Akshaye Khanna. She shot for a special appearance in superstar Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film -- 'Zero' -- which releases in December.

But by the time she made her entry into Bollywood, the actor was a known face in South Indian films. She made her debut in Tamil films as a child artiste with 'Thunaivan' in 1969. As an adult, she debuted in Tamil cinema in late 70s. She also worked in Malayalam, Telugu and Kannada films.

She is survived by her husband Boney and daughters Khushi and Janhvi Kapoor. Jahnvi is currently working towards making her entry into the Hindi cinema. Sridevi was step-mother to actor Arjun Kapoor and his sister Anshula, who Boney had from late first wife Mona.
