It's been a year since we woke up to the heartbreaking news of the sudden demise of the veteran actress of Bollywood, Sridevi. The actress is and will always be missed by her family, fans and the entire Bollywood fraternity. The actress breathed last on February 24th in Dubai, where she was attending a family wedding with her husband Boney Kapoor and daughter Khushi Kapoor.

Meanwhile, Janhvi Kapoor who made her Bollywood debut with Dhadak in 2018, has often expressed her feelings about her mother's death and the pain of not being with her. During one of her interviews, she said to the media, "We've lost mom and I don't think that's a loss any of us will ever get over."

She also admitted the fact that she has become closer to her half-siblings, Arjun and Anshula Kapoor after her mother passed away. Although she doesn't remember anything from those days, she does have a memory of one specific day when she felt better." We were sitting in Harsh bhaiya's (Harshvardan Kapoor) and Arjun bhaiya and Anshula didi came in- I think that was the one day when I felt like, Ok maybe we might be okay," she said.

Sending strength and prayers to the family!
