The first female superstar of Bollywood Sridevi left for the heavenly abode on 23rd February in Dubai. She was only 54 years old at the time of death. It came as a shock not only to the Bollywood fraternity but also to the public. Now, Sridevi’s housing society ‘Green Acres’ has decided not to celebrate Holi to pay respect to the superstar. The picture of a notice issued by the society is displayed at the entrance of the society building. The notice read as “There will be no music, rain, dance, colored water exchanges or the usual community lunch.”
