Sridevi lives her character in and as MOM

Mumbai, July 3 (IBNS): Sridevi, who will next be seen in the emotional thriller MOM, immediately connected with the film's script given that she understood the emotions behind it ,being a doting mother of two daughters.

Not only did Sridevi restrict social conversation while shooting for the film and barely even spoke to husband-producer Boney Kapoor for two months while shooting the film but was so absorbed with her character that even post the day's shoot.

The superstar even post the film's schedule ,would unconsciously shift into the mind space of Deviki, her character in MOM.

In fact Sridevi's daughters would often tell her to snap out of it and only then would she realize that she's unconsciously slipping into the quiet body language of her character.

Says Sridevi, "I was in a different frame of mind while shooting for MOM ....it was not a conscious decision where I decided to avoid talking to people for the sake for my role...but while filming , my head space and the character didn't permit me and allow me to just be normal. I was in a shell , I was not communicating with my family as much as I normally would . Infact my daughter told me at the end of all the shoots and filming that " mom thank God you are back to being normal again."
