Sridevi Kapoor, a Bollywood superstar who broke the mould when it came to playing traditionally coy female roles, has died after suffering a heart attack in Dubai, her family said on Sunday.
Sridevi took a break from films soon after she married producer Boney Kapoor in 1996.
She was awarded the Padma Shri, India’s fourth-highest civilian award, for her services to the film industry.
She was a veteran of the film industry, whose long career included diverse roles and memorable performances.
