towards her heavenly abode. All the members of the Marwah Studio including the
Faculty, Staff and the Students gathered to pay homage to the departed soul. A
two minute silence was observed followed by a short video showcasing some clips
of Sridevi's terrific performances and views for her given by her co-stars like
Anil Kapoor, Jitender and Rishi Kapoor.
"Sridevi was an outstanding actress who has made a
terrific mark in the history by serving the film industry for 50 long
years. Not only I have lost a family member, but film industry has lost one of
it's most beautiful and talented gem, I pray that all good things that
were in her mind, get accomplished and may the paragonic beauty rest in
peace.", said Sandeep Marwah President of Asian Education Group.

launched and a retrospective of her movies at Marwah Studio in the coming days
as a gesture of respect towards her. The lady superstar, the very versatile and
talented actress, Padmashree Awardee, who entertained the entire globe for 50
long years, will always be alive in our hearts. Her work has made her
eternal.
