As Sridevi, the once and future Queen Bee of Bollywood, turns 50, we asked NDTV surfers to vote for their 10 favourite songs featuring the actress. Ahead, the top 10 you chose.
Hawa Hawai: From the cult classic Mr India (1987), Sridevi's performance in Hawa Hawai remains a great moment in the history of Bollywood performances.
Kaate Nahi Kat Te: Also from Mr India (1987), Sridevi's blue chiffon-clad sex appeal propelled this number up the charts.
Mere Haathon Mein: Frolicking in a peach lehanga choli, Sridevi makes the screen come alive with her energetic dance moves and vibrant facial expressions in this song from Chandni (1989).
Na Jaane: As stage dancer Manju, Sridevi made hearts skip a beat with her performance in this peppy number from ChaalBaaz (1989).
Morni Baga Ma: In this folk dance number from Yash Chopra's Lamhe (1991), Sridevi dances like a peacock in a desert.
Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta: This song from Janbaaz (1986), a highlight of Sridevi's guest appearance as a drug addict, eclipsed the other songs featuring the film's lead actress, Dimple Kapadia.
Chandni: Rishi Kapoor romances Sridevi in picturesque Switzerland in the title song from Chandni (1989). The female vocals on the song are sung by Sridevi herself.
Naino Mein Sapna: Often touted as one of the reasons behind Sridevi's superstardom, Sridevi looks nothing short of an apsara descended from heaven in this song from Himmatwala (1983) as she matches steps with 'Jumping Jack' Jeetendra.
Tu Na Jaa Mere Baadshah: After performing bubbly roles in movies like Mr India (1989) and ChaalBaaz (1989), Sridevi depicted the desperation of a woman pleading the love of her life not to abandon her in this song from Khuda Gawah (1992).
Tu Mujhe Kabool: In this song from Khuda Gawah (1992), Sridevi looks regal and beautiful while playing a coy bride waiting for her knight in shining armour to whisk her off her feet and take her with him.
