Sridevi wins Best Actress Prize at National film Award 2018

Two months after the tragic death of the famous Indian actress, Sridevi, her daughters Janhvi and Kushi and her husband Boney Kapoor collected the late star's Best Actress National Award. The Award ceremony was held in New Delhi's Vigyan Bhawan on Thursday (May 3). Janhvi, an aspiring actress, wore one of her mother's sarees for what designer Manish Malhotra described on social media as an "emotional and precious moment." Sridevi, who drowned in Dubai in February, was honored with her first ever National Award posthumously where she won Best Actress for her role in 2017 movie MOM. Ahead of the ceremony, Janhvi Kapoor speaking to the reporters said, "I want to thank the jury and the government of India for recognizing the hard work my mother has done. It is very special for us as a family."
