Further, the Baahubali director praised the veteran actress for her great achievement in the film industry. “I have huge respect for Srideviji as a flag-bearer of the southern film industries in Mumbai for many years. I wish her all the best. And I wish Mom a big success as the trailer looks very intriguing and promising”, Rajamouli added.

In a recent interview with Rajeev Masand, Sridevi spoke about the Baahubali issue and said, "But I would like to talk about this. It has become such a big issue and people are imagining things (as to why I have said no the film). I have my own reasons. First of all, two parts of Baahubali have come out, and now they are asking me. There are many films, I refused. Why are they not talking about it? Why only this film? I will go there and talk about it.” Watch the video here.

Sridevi’s 300th film Mom hit the cinemas on Friday and, audience and critics are all praise for her power-packed performance in the film. Directed by Ravi Udyawar, Mom also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Akshaye Khanna and Pakistani actress Sajal Ali.
