Legendary Bollywood actress Sridevi was paid a final tribute through a peaceful prayer meet at the city hotel in Chennai. Boney Kapoor and daughters Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor also attended the prayer meeting. Sridevi was loved by millions and millions of Indians and her demise left the entire film fraternity in shock.

Filmmakers from Tamil film industry organised a prayer meeting on Sunday remembering the Queen of Smile with all their condolence. Sridevi's fashion designer Manish Malhotra also accompanied the family to Chennai and shared a few pictures on Instagram. This was quite a private event and media wasn't present. Moreover, Sridevi who is from down south was born in Sivakasi in Tamil Nadu on August 13, 1963. While her debut in film was as a child artiste in 1969 Tamil movie Thunaivan.

It was the dark day of February 24, Sridevi accidentally drowned in a hotel bathtub in Dubai, where she was attending the wedding festivities of her nephew Mohit Marwah. 'MOM' was her last film and she has also shot for Aanand L Rai's Zero which releases later this year.

Actors Sripriya, Sivakumar, Padmini and filmmaker K Bhagyaraj, had paid their last respects to the late superstar in this event organised by the South Indian Artistes' Association (SIAA)
