English Vinglish, told news agency IANS: "Nothing is more important than your children." Sridevi and her daughters Jhanvi, 19 and Khushi, 16, are quite a sensation on social media thanks to their
frequent fashionista-like posts. Sridevi's daughters' appearances are most-awaited and the
spotlight follows them everywhere. Recently, the trio was at a wedding in Hyderabad and Twitter went crazy tracking their updates.

The film is reportedly a remake of Marathi blockbuster Sairat. Talking about Jhanvi's debut, Sridevi told IANS in an earlier interview: "If it has to happen, she will enter films. I never planned to be an actress."
