    Written by debutant author Dhiraj Kumar, the book celebrates the extraordinary life of the late actress and will be published in 2023

    New Delhi [India], February 10: Westland Books is pleased to announce that it has acquired the publishing rights of the biography of iconic superstar, Sridevi. Titled Sridevi – The Life of a Legend, the book draws a complete portrait of the actress, the quintessential star who had an unmatched career in Indian cinema. In her career, spanning over five decades, the renowned actress had worked in over 300 films in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Hindi.  She was conferred the Padma Shri, the National Film Award, several Filmfare awards, State Government awards and International Awards. The book is written by debutant author Dhiraj Kumar and will release in 2023, across all online and offline bookstores.

    Commenting on the book, filmmaker Boney Kapoor said, “Sridevi was a force of nature.
