The role of Sivagami in Baahubali was supposed to be essayed by Sridevi. However the actress who was choosy about her roles in the second innings demanded 6 Crore for the role. The makers have opted Ramya Krishnan instead of her.
Ramya Krishnan performed splendidly in the character and won accolades from every one. On the other side, Sridevi accepted Tamil film, Puli and got a hefty paycheck for the role. But she completely regrets missing the chance which could have made so much impact.
Further, Puli had got very bad feedback from the trailers and stills released.Many even feel Sridevi is a misfit. If Puli fails at the box office, Sridevi will regret even more. The Athiloka Sundari started her second innings with critically acclaimed English Vinglish.
