Sridevi’s co-star the French actor Mehdi Nebbou has apparently become a big Sri fan after working with her in English Vinglish. And we aren't talking about just being her fan as an actress. Apparently Mehdi found her reticence and quietude very charming. Says R Balki, the producer of their film <em>English Vinglish</em>, “It was a really curious contradiction. On screen Sridevi was playing a very talkative woman. But once the camera was off she was very reserved to begin with. But gradually as we shot in New York she opened up and began to mingle with all of us.”
