Rupali Ganguly Opens Up On Comparisons of Anupamaa Look with Sridevi
In an interview with Yahoo Style, Rupali said, “I feel so overwhelmed because she has been an idol, she is someone whom we have grown up watching, I have watched all her films 25-30 times. I have seen her movies like Mr. India, ChaalBaaz, Chandni, Lamhe, etc, at least 8-10 times in theatres. I am just so obsessed with Sridevi and I feel if you consider someone your idol a little bit of their mannerism reflects in your behaviour too.”
She also added, “I have seen all her movies so many times. Like for Sanjivani, Ladla was my reference point, for Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, Chaalbaaz was my reference point. But for Anupamaa it has been my father’s (Anil Ganguly) Kora Kagaz.” Her father was a director and screenwriter known for films like Tapasya and Saaheb.
