In one of his statements in 2014, filmmaker Shyam Benegal said he wants to strangle the person who has coined the world parallel for cinema. And rightly so! This is a film industry and not a math class. Today, the lines between commercial and the so-called art-house cinema have blurred. Wish it never existed in the first place. And if it didn't, Surekha Sikri would have been written a lot more about.
Today, social media has helped people a lot to know more about this galvanising and gifted actor. With 2018's Badhaai Ho, where she played a cantankerous yet charming grandmother, she nearly stole the show from the other principal characters. It wasn't her reinvention, she was always a dynamic performer, it was the reinvention of the storytelling in Hindi Cinema. It was a bold move if not exactly a giant leap.
