Sridevi
As many as 14 contestants of the non-fiction show "Rising Star 2" will pay tribute to actress Sridevi, whose sudden demise shook the nation. Sridevi, who starred in about 300 films, died due to drowning in a bathtub in a Dubai hotel on February 24.
This weekend, the talent on the Colors show will take the audience down memory lane by performing on some of Sridevi's songs, a statement said. Singer Alka Yagnik will also appear in the show as a guest judge.
"The concept of live singing is very appealing. I have judged many singing reality shows but 'Rising Star 2' is something very unique as it ensures maximum viewer engagement," Alka said in a statement.
