FollowBollywood actress Sridevi was recently interviewed by a senior journalist and film critic Rajeev Masand where she opened up about her latest movie MOM and also about rejecting teh role of Sivagami in Baahubali.
When Sridevi was asked if she has seen Baahubali, the actress revealed that she never watched it, “No. To be honest, No I didn’t see the movie. But I would like to talk about this because I thought I decided maybe I will talk about this in Hyderabad. Because it become a big issue. People are talking and imagining things. I have my own reasons. And why people are asking me about this after Baahubali part 2? There are many films I refused. Why aren’t they talking about it? Why only this film?”.

I feel fortunate that I am still able to be part of these films.
