It was an emotional moment for producer Boney Kapoor as he accepted the Best Actress Award on behalf of his late wife and legendary actress Sridevi at the 19th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards here. Sridevi, who passed away on the night of February 24 in Dubai, where she had gone to attend a family wedding, was honoured posthumously for her role of a mother in 2017 crime thriller film Mom.
While on stage, Boney couldn't hold on to his emotions as he took the trophy on behalf of the yesteryear star. "I miss her every moment of my life," Boney said as tears ran down from his cheeks. His son Arjun Kapoor and brother Anil Kapoor later came on stage to comfort him. "She was a true genius. The country, the world, and our family misses you," Anil said.
