Indian film industry has been ostentatious and opulent with great actors and technicians. And it was ruled by legendary heroines such as Madhubala, Vyjayanthimala, Hemamalini, Rekha, Madhuri Dixit and several others. 

Enchanting and bewitching beauty Sridevi, however, stood as one and only all India number one heroine of all time. Some of the heroines might have dominated North India, but had no roots in South. On the contrary, a few heroines, who were crowned as numero uno heroines down South, couldn't prove their mettle as number ones in North. Nonetheless, Sridevi has been the only heroine who had been renowned as a number one actress in North as well as South during 1980s and early 90s.
