For the first time, I was really scared by a female vampish character in a Hindi film whose piercing eyes spew venom. Sridevi turns in a powerhouse performance and the scene where she attacks Farida Jalal (who plays Anil Kapoor's mom) is brilliant. I guess no other actress would've conveyed the multiple range of emotions with an exaggerated sense. The way she mouths her dialogues and her signature line "Understand? You better understand!" is just awesome. I guess even the late Divya Bharati (who was the original choice for the role of Sheetal Jetley)wouldn't have pulled off the character with such ease and élan like Sri did. If Sridevi was not in this film, the film would have fallen flat on its face. Sridevi is in this film from the very first frame and she steals the show under everyone's nose. Laadla only belongs to just one of its principal casts-Sridevi.
