'Feeling unusually uneasy': Big B posts tweet hour before Sridevi's demise

February 25, 2018 10:03

There was an outpouring of grief from celebrities on Twitter soon after news broke of Sridevi's untimely demise. But one tweet by Amitabh Bachchan, posted hours before reports of the veteran actor's demise, stood out.

At 1:15 am, Bachchan tweeted that he was feeling an "unusual unease".

Around 3 am, reports started trickling in of Sridevi's death due to cardiac arrest in Dubai. Soon, Twitterati began pointing towards the eerie coincidence.

Sridevi, the wife of producer Boney Kapoor, reportedly died due to cardiac arrest late in the night in Dubai, where she had gone to attend her nephew Mohit Marwah's wedding. While some of the family members returned from Dubai after the wedding, Sridevi, Boney and Khushi stayed back.

A versatile actor, Sridevi made her Bollywood debut in 1978 with "Solva Sawan". But it was only after five years with Jeetendra-starrer "Himmatwala" that she gained commercial success. Her beguiling eyes, scintillating screen presence and acting prowess soon made her one of the most sought-after artistes in the Hindi film industry.
