Recently, in an interview with a leading daily, Aamir spoke about the late actress and said, “I’ve been an absolutely huge fan of Sridevi. She was my number 1 favourite. I told Boney [Kapoor] fairly recently that when I was new in the industry, a magazine asked me to do a shoot with Sridevi. I can’t tell you how nervous I was. In my heart, I was so afraid that when I would come in front of her, she would understand in two seconds that this boy is in love with her. I was smitten, totally.” Aamir along with his wife Kiran Rao had also visited Sridevi's residence to offer their condolences to her grieving family. Stay tuned for more updates.
