Legendary actress Sridevi passed away due to accidental drowning on February 24 in 2018. Boney Kapoor recently revealed that there will be a biography on her life. Written by Dhiraj Kumar, the biography is titled Sridevi - The Life of a Legend. The book will release later this year.

Commenting on the book, filmmaker Boney Kapoor said, “Sridevi was a force of nature. She was the happiest when she shared her art on screen with her fans but she was also a fiercely private person. Dhiraj Kumar is someone she considered family. He is a researcher, writer, and columnist. We are happy that he is writing a book that befits her extraordinary life.” Sanghamitra Biswas, Executive Editor, Westland Books, remarked, “What attracted us to this book was the wealth of research behind it. Dhiraj Kumar’s friendship with Sridevi and her family enables him to offer a unique insight into the inner world of the very private star. This book will make readers rediscover an icon.” “I am delighted that the venerable Westland Books will be publishing my debut book. My literary agent, Anish Chandy made this happen. I am thankful for the permission and support of Boney Kapoor and his family, Latha and Sanjay Ramaswamy, Suryakala, Maheshwari and Karthik, Reena and Sandeep Marwah,” said author Dhiraj Kumar. Dhiraj has left no stone unturned to create a 360-degree portrait of one of India’s greatest onscreen performers. I‘m very happy that the team at Westland, which has delivered some of India's greatest biographies, is publishing this book,” said Anish Chandy, The Labyrinth Agency.
