Boney continued, “I was planning to do a film with Rishi Kapoor. I went to Chennai to rope in Sridevi as the female lead in the film. However, since Sridevi was in Singapore, I couldn't meet her. Later I cast her in Mr India opposite my brother Anil Kapoor. I felt as if I realized my dream. She used to be very reserved and talk even less. She never used to mingle with outsiders. Since I am also an outsider she spoke with me very less. She spoke in broken Hindi and a few words in Hindi.”

Boney added, “Sridevi's mother used to think in a commercial manner. During that time Sridevi demanded a whopping Rs 10lakhs which was the highest payment. But I paid her a bit more Rs 11lakhs. This created a good impression on me with her mother. I used to take care of Sridevi as a precious one during the shooting. After marrying Sridevi, I revealed the same to my former wife. I used to take care of Sridevi's wellbeing in the shoots of other films also".
