Boney Kapoor explains that Sridevi followed extremely stringent diets that omitted sodium and that occasionally caused her to have blackouts.
When Sridevi, referred regarded as India’s first female superstar, passed away in 2018, she left behind a legacy that has inspired and influenced many actors and actresses throughout the years. Boney Kapoor, the actress’s husband and a filmmaker, has finally spoken out about her passing after a lengthy period of silence.
The late actress, according to the producer, followed extremely rigid diets that avoided sodium and occasionally had blackouts as a result. He also related a similar situation that star Nagarjuna had, and a Mr. India actress even lost a tooth as a result of fainting.
Boney Kapoor claimed, in an interview with Indian Express, “It was not a natural death; it was an accidental death. Since I had discussed it for approximately 24 or 48 hours straight while I was being examined and questioned, I had made the decision to keep quiet about it. In fact, the police claimed that the Indian media had put a lot of pressure on us, so we had no choice but to go through this. And they found there had been no criminal activity. I took every test, including a lie detector test, and everything else. The report that followed, of course, made it very plain that it was an accident.
Boney disclosed that Sridevi continued to adhere to a rigid eating plan at the time of her death. She used to starve herself frequently in order to look attractive. She wanted to look well on TV, so she made sure she was in fantastic form. She experienced a few blackouts while we were still together, and the doctor kept blaming her low blood pressure,” he stated.
Boney Kapoor added that Nagarjuna had related a similar story about Sridevi passing out during a movie shoot in the lavatory. It was unfortunate, he said. until she eventually passed away. When Nagarjuna visited to express his sympathies, he revealed to me that she had fallen in the bathroom and broken her teeth since she was once again on a crash diet while filming one of her films.
Boney Kapoor said that he was aware of Sridevi’s propensity to follow rigid diets after their marriage. He frequently asked their doctor to advise salting up her diet. He also said that she preferred salt-free meals, especially at dinnertime. Sadly, he said, “She didn’t take this seriously, and he also believed maybe it wasn’t that serious.
