Controversial Film on Sridevi: Was It Murder?

It has been a common issue for certain films to get delayed due to certain legal issues and controversies. One such film is Sridevi Bungalow, which has been under development for a long time.

Marking the Bollywood debut of actress Priya Prakash Varrier, the film will reportedly focus on the mystery of the bungalow associated with late actress Sridevi. The narrative would be full of several twists and the themes of fame, obsession, and tragedy in the film industry.

The movie is scheduled to arrive sometime in November. However, a specific date is yet to be confirmed by the makers about the same. On the other hand, the producers have not spoken up on anything related to the reasons behind the delay.

The film created headlines after being announced in 2019. The reason was a legal notice sent by Boney Kapoor to the makers, addressing his criticism for a bathtub scene that resembled the way Sridevi was found dead the previous year.
