"On my birthday, the only thing I ask of all of you is that you love your parents. Cherish them and devote yourself to making them feel that love. They have made you. And I ask that you remember my mother fondly, pray for her soul to rest in peace. Let the love and adulation you'll shower on her continue and please know that the biggest part of my mother was the love she shared with papa.
"... Their love is immortal because there was nothing like it in the whole world. Nothing as joyful and pure and no two people as devoted to one another as they were. Please respect that because it hurts to think anyone would ever try to tarnish it," she wrote on Instagram.
The 54 year old actress passed away on February 24 in Dubai, where she had gone to attend a relative's wedding ceremony. She was cremated on February 28.
She had delivered powerful roles in movies like Chalbaaz, Sadma, Lamhe, Mr India, English Vinglish, Mom and many more that were critically acclaimed.
Besides this, she also worked in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam and Kannada films. Sridevi was awarded the Padma Shri, the fourth highest civilian honour, in 2013.
Her sudden demise has set off shock waves in the country. Her absence will definitely lead a void in Bollywood that's difficult to fill.
