Cricket and Bollywood are two different industry but have stood together through thick and thins. Sridevi's tragic and untimely death has brought tears to her fans and followers. Even the cricket fraternity mourns the unfortunate death. Padma Shri awardee Sridevi had an illustrious career spanning over four decades, passed away at 54. The actor, the wife of producer Boney Kapoor, died late in the night reportedly due to cardiac arrest in Dubai, where she had gone along with her family to attend her nephew Mohit Marwah's wedding.

Confirming the news, a source close to the family said, "Yes it's true. She was in Dubai while some of the other family members came back to India. We hear it's cardiac arrest."

Many cricketers and Bollywood actresses have tied knots such as Zaheer Khan and Sagarika Ghatge, Yuvraj Singh and Hazel Keech, Harbhajan Singh and Geeta Basra, Mohammad Azharuddin and Sangeeta Bijlani, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi and Sharmila Tagore also the current skipper Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma.
