Supernal Sedona

Our Hawaiian Vacation

If 'Hawaii' reminds Sridevi for Indians, it is the islands for the rest of the world. Infact, Sridevi dressed in the Hawaii costume to the song number that is popular even now. Floral shirts, shorts and wrap arounds, flower garlands, jazzy sunglasses, big yellow earrings and two coconut drinks, yes that's the Hawaiian costume known to the world. They were the early trendsetters for beach outfits. At the Hawaii, the tourists can sail, sunbath and...
