The much-in-love couple welcomed two beautiful daughters janhvi kapoor and Khushi Kapoor into their lives. Everything was going on in the best way, but the day of 24 february 2018 brought an earthquake in the life of the Kapoor family. sridevi died on the same day due to accidental drowning in a hotel bathtub in Dubai. His untimely demise has shocked his family members, who miss him a lot every day of their life.

Describing sridevi as her friend, Smita said, "Sridevi is a good friend of mine. I would like to talk to her and ask her if she is aware that she is being exploited. Maybe she is not. Know. I can't say I wasn't exploited. I was too naive to feel the bathing scene during the movie 'Chakra'. I was convinced and defended it for years. people who think like me It took four years to realize this and these South indian actresses can't even imagine. Their environment doesn't give them much chance to grow mentally so it is natural that they take life as their parents. They do these meaningless scenes to make enough money and get married."

Smita also recalled one of the incidents when she was asked to show her legs for a delivery scene and revealed that she told that her expressions were enough for the audience to understand the scene. Taking a jibe at sridevi and other actresses, Smita said that if she doesn't do a scene, someone else will for money. In her words, "Recently, for a delivery scene in a film, the director asked me to show my legs. I said 'no' there is no need, my facial expressions were enough to explain the scene, There are other films for such scenes. I have rejected it but the problem is not that simple. Just because I am not doing such films. I will not expect it from others. Koi jijne dus lakh Mila is showing off her legs and if sridevi doesn't do it, someone else will."

She had said, "Unfortunately I haven't seen any of these South indian films, but I know the way they are made. These actresses may have their reasons for doing such roles, I don't know.", But how many such films will last? Not for long. Although I understand that people do what is harmful, can I say to these actresses, 'Please forget your ten lakhs and start a better cinema. Work in that direction. They have a sense of superiority. They feel so good about being the 'sex symbol' of the industry, I feel sorry for them."
