Actor Kharaj Mukherjee feels there are so many things that made Sridevi one of the most iconic stars of the country. On Sridevi’s death anniversary, the seasoned actor says be it the rib-tickling comedy in ‘Chalbaaz’ or the heart-wrenching scenes in ‘Sadma’, she was a master of all. “Such was Sridevi ji’s charisma that during the peak of her career she used to be called the ‘female Amitabh Bachchan' by the leading dailies of that time and rightly so. This was enough to cement her status as Bollywood's first female superstar. She was one of the very few female actors of that time who could single-handedly drive a film’s box office run. I had once read that she was even offered a small role in the Hollywood classic ‘Jurassic Park’ by none other than Steven Spielberg and you know what she said? She had refused the offer saying that this role didn't suit her stardom,” the senior actor told ETimes during a recent chat.
