In a recent interview with the popular news portal, Boney Kapoor talked about his late wife Sridevi, "Sridevi was more religious than I was. I started believing more in it because of her".
He admitted that it was because of her that he started thinking more about spirituality. Besides her strong belief in faith, Kapoor also talked about Sridevi's special personality, pointing out her love for doing things differently. He shared a story that showed this interesting side of her character.
He further recalled, "Sridevi did unusual roles and unusual things. She lit the fire on the pyre when her mother passed away."
He said that it is usually men who light the funeral fire in some cultures. Interestingly, their daughter, Janhvi Kapoor also has a spiritual side. She often goes to the Tirupati Balaji Temple. Just recently, she marked her 50th visit to the temple on her birthday.
When Sridevi was attending a family wedding in a Dubai hotel bathtub in 2018, she tragically drowned. Boney Kapoor revealed in 2023 that the actor's low-salt diets, which she followed till her death, were the cause of her blackouts.
In a previous interview with the popular entertainment portal, he said, "She often used to starve; she wanted to look good. She wanted to make sure she was in good shape so that, on-screen, she looked good. From the time she was married to me, she had blackouts on a couple of occasions, and the doctor kept on saying she had a low BP issue."
Boney Kapoor revealed that, although being married in June 1996, their marriage was kept a secret from the public until January 1997. Keeping it a secret made them the target of criticism.
