The Jackie Shroff & Sridevi partnership

From Karma (1986) to Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993). The unfolded closed with Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja in 1993. It started with Karma (1986).

The shape of the work

The 1980s belonged to Karma; the 1990s to Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja. Jackie Shroff acted in every film; Sridevi acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.

Partnership facts

  • They first met on the sets of Karma (1986), but Sridevi was initially hesitant to work with Jackie because she thought he looked too 'rough' for a romantic lead. Subhash Ghai had to convince her by showing her Jackie's softer side in a screen test.
  • In Pathar Ke Insan (1990), Jackie played a deaf-mute man, and Sridevi had to communicate entirely through expressions and gestures. She later said that working with him in that film taught her to act with her eyes, not just her dialogue.
  • Jackie and Sridevi shared a running joke on every set: he would call her 'Bhabhi' (sister-in-law) because she was close to his wife Ayesha, and she would call him 'Jija' (brother-in-law). They kept this up through all four films.
  • Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993) was supposed to launch a new action-comedy trend, but it bombed so hard that it effectively ended both their runs as a pair. No producer paired them again after that disaster.
  • Jackie once said in an interview: 'Sridevi was the only actress who could make me forget my lines. I'd just stand there and watch her, and the director would have to yell 'cut' to snap me out of it.'
  • In Jawab Hum Denge (1987), they had a fight scene where Jackie had to slap a table instead of her face. Sridevi improvised by flinching exactly when his hand hit the wood, making the slap look real. The director kept that take.
