Unfortunately, the film was swept away during the July 26th storms," a social media user said. "This movie was ahead of its time. "Abhi release hue hoti, you could have won Filmfare," another netizen added.
July of last year marked the film's 19th anniversary. Anusha wrote a statement of thanks to the Virrudh team, recalling her time working on the film.??
"My first wedding, what a turn out! 19 years of Virrudh... what a beautiful film this was for so many, especially me. Have you watched it? Thank you @maheshmanjrekar I have such special films because of you.I also get to say I worked with the greatest," she had posted.
Mahesh Manjrekar directed Virrudh in 2005. The film also stars Sharmila Tagore, John Abraham, and Sanjay Dutt.
