New Delhi:
Late actress Sridevi and Rishi Kapoor's 1989 film Chandni is considered to be one of the iconic movies till now. On Sunday morning, Rishi Kapoor's wife Neetu Kapoor posted a still from Chandni on Instagram and wrote, "Reminiscing !!!! When people said this movie brought back romance in their lives. My all time favourite #Chandni." The film was directed by Yash Chopra and was one of the biggest box office hits of 1989. Actor Vinod Khanna, who died last April, was also a part of the film. Sridevi died in Dubai on February 24. She was 54. She was in UAE to attend nephew Mohit Marwah's wedding, along with the other members of the Kapoor family.

He also posted two angry tweets with the coverage related to Sridevi's death. Rishi Kapoor objected to Sridevi's remains being referred to as 'body' and his other tweet complained of being chased by the media for quotes about the late actress.

How has Sridevi all of a sudden become the "body"? All television channels reporting "the body will be brought to Mumbai in the night!" Suddenly your individuality gets lost and becomes a mere body??

The Media(electronic/print)behaved badly with me during these three days after Sridevi ji passed away. I accept I worked with her in two Iconic films but that doesn't mean I be hawked for a quote or reaction. My prerogative to speak or not. Mobile rang incessantly whilst at work
