Satish Kaushik apologizes to Sridevi and Boney Kapoor. Know why
What's the story
Actor-director Satish Kaushik has tendered an apology to late Sridevi and her producer-husband Boney Kapoor on Twitter. Satish, in 1993, had directed Anil Kapoor-Sridevi starrer 'Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja' which failed big time at the box office. Boney had backed the expensive project and was left broke. Therefore, on the occasion of the film's 25th anniversary today, Satish apologized for its debacle.
