Anil Kapoor- Madhuri Dixit, Aamir Khan- Madhuri Dixit, Rekha- Jeetendra, Amitabh Bachchan- Rekha, Shah Rukh Khan- Deepika Padukone are some of the famous Bollywood couples. There was a time in Bollywood when films used to be successful on the basis of actor-actress pairings. One such actress was Sridevi. Anil Kapoor and Sridevi were brother-in-law and sister-in-law.

Anil Kapoor had revealed in a tribute ceremony organized by IIFA that he used to touch Sridevi’s feet. Anil had said, “My Bhabhi Sridevi was the biggest star of her generation. She was also number one in the Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam film industries. She also became the number one star of Hindi cinema. Whenever I met Sridevi ji, I used to touch her feet. She used to laugh and say Anil ji, what are you doing? Why do you touch my feet? I used to say that I touch your feet so that I can get even a little bit of your talent. I say this from the bottom of my heart that the whole world misses Sridevi. Being an important member of the family, I miss her a lot.”
