Sridevi Breaks Silence On Rejecting Sivagami Role In Baahubali: What's The Point In Talking About It

  • Sridevi Breaks Silence On Rejecting Sivagami Role In Baahubali: What's The Point In Talking About It
Following the tremendous success of SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2, everyone including controversial filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma wondered as to why Sridevi rejected Sivagami role?
 
Sridevi has avoided addressing this question for a long time. However, recently, during the promotion of her upcoming film MOM, she broke her silence on the question. 
 
When she was probed as to why she turned down the film, she said, “Another actor played that role and both versions of the films were released and became a hit. Now, what’s the point in talking about it?” she asked. 
 
 
Well, maybe she has a point. Baahubali became the biggest ever film franchise for Indian cinema and we loved all the performances of the actors in the film. Now that all the stars have moved on and started working on their other projects, it is time to put this question behind.
