Void that can never be filled: family, colleagues remember Sridevi on 1st death anniversary

A year has gone by since the Indian film industry lost its first female superstar, Sridevi, but her family, co-stars and directors are yet to come to terms with her absence.

Sridevi passed away, aged 54, due to accidental drowning in a Dubai hotel on February 24 last year. Her sudden death left family, friends and thousands of fans in a state of shock.

On her first death anniversary, daughter Janhvi Kapoor was among the first ones to pay a tribute to Sridevi on social media. "My heart will always be heavy. But I'll always be smiling because it has you in it," Janhvi wrote on Instagram, alongside a picture of her sitting in her mother's lap holding hands.

Sridevi's brother-in-law, Anil Kapoor, who has shared screen space with her in multiple films, wrote: "An unbearable loss is only made bearable through fond memories...We miss you #Sridevi. A whole lot."

Sonam Kapoor also posted a picture of the evergreen actor on Instagram to pay tribute.
