Sridevi had her own charm in Hindi cinema. Any film in which she was a part would become a hit. In 1989 she was seen in a film in which she not only acted but also saved the sinking career of the director. Rishi Kapoor and Vinod Khanna were also seen in lead roles in this film. The film created a stir at the box office. The name of that film of Rishi Kapoor Sridevi and Vinod Khanna is Chandni. When this film hit the theatres in the year 1989 people became crazy about this love story. The film was a huge success in terms of earnings. Yash Chopra did such an experiment with this film which everyone doubted even the distributors. People also liked the theme of the film a lot. It was one of the blockbuster films of that era. Sridevi got an offer while sitting at home Director Yash Chopra who made the film Chandni and the three lead stars of the film Vinod Khanna Sridevi and Rishi Kapoor are no longer with us. But whenever the names of these four are mentioned this film is remembered. If Yash Chopra wanted he could have called Sridevi to his office in Mumbai to talk about the film Chandni. But he did not do so showing his magnanimity he went to Chennai and offered this film to Sridevi at her home. In the film Sridevi has mostly worn chiffon saris and white salwar kurtas. In the role of Chandni she was always seen spreading moonlight. The whole story was changed Yash Chopra had come up with a love triangle like Chandni in the action era so it was a big experiment. The story of the film was written by Kamna Chandra. In the film Rishi Kapoor i.e. Rohits character becomes handicapped after marrying Chandni and becoming the father of a child. In the climax of the film their son brings a bouquet to Chandnis second wedding. But Yash Chopra got crazy and changed the entire story of the film and broke the love story of Rohit and Chandni after their engagement. A love triangle was added to the film by including Lalit and Chandni in Bombay. Before this film Rishi Kapoor had given many flop films. But after Chandni his luck shone so much that he got back his lost stardom. Not only this Vinod Khanna who was known for his image of an action hero got a new identity by giving him a romantic role. In this sense this film proved to be a lifesaver for Vinod Khanna and Rishi Kapoor. Yash Chopras faltering career also came back on the right track after this film.
