A source close to the actress tells us, "It has always been so. She used to paint after shooting when she was busy as an actress. She considered it the best form of relaxation. But then as she stopped acting she also stopped painting."
The source further adds, "But now Sreedevi has once again picked up the brush to give expression to her feelings. Just a few days back, she was at Salman Khan's residence with her husband, producer Boney Kapoor.
And while Boney spoke to Salman and family, Sreedevi utlised the time to paint. The conversations and the painting went on till 5 o'clock in the morning.
Salman completed the paintings of Sreedevi the following day, got them framed and sent them all to her house. The painting was a true piece of art with Gautam Buddha painted inside Jesus Christ!"
