Bhumi Pednekar says, “In women, for me the ultimate performer for comedy has to be Sridevi ma'am. She was so phenomenal, some of her best performances have happened when she has attempted comedy and she’s somebody I’ve drawn a lot of energy from.”

For Kiara, “I absolutely love Sridevi maam’s comic timing. I think she brought in so much exuberance and energy into every scene that had comic relief and she would make every situation so enjoyable. It is such a joy to watch her perform on screen.”
