It's been one year since Sharvari graced the screen as Bela in the horror-comedy "Munjya," directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, and the actress is taking a moment to express her gratitude. Sharvari shared her reflections and celebrated the film's anniversary with heartfelt messages on social media.
In an Instagram post, Sharvari shared behind-the-scenes glimpses from before the film's release, reminiscing about the nervousness and excitement she felt at the time. She wrote, "1 year ago, on this day our film #Munjya released. With hope, courage & love we introduced our bundle of happiness & hardwork to the world.. I remember leading upto the release my conversations with Dinoo sir, Aditya sir & Abhay were filled with nervousness and excitement but who knew 1 year later we would be here celebrating our superhit film .. aaaah!"
"Munjya," backed by Amar Kaushik and Dinesh Vijan under the Maddock Films banner, is a creature comedy rooted in Marathi folklore. The film, which also stars Abhay Verma and Mona Singh, revolves around the eponymous mythical creature. Upon its release on June 7, 2024, "Munjya" was well-received by audiences and critics alike, eventually grossing over ₹100 crore at the domestic box office.
Sharvari also expressed her special connection to the song "Taras" from the film. "#Taras will always be extremely special because it was my first solo song & to experience the love that I receive for it even today is unreal." She extended her thanks to the audience, stating, "Thank you to you all - the audiences who championed our film & gave us so much to look forward to in our careers ahead! This journey would be incomplete without y'all."
The actress also showed her gratitude to the entire team behind "Munjya," including Dinesh Vijan, Aditya Sarpotdar, Abhay Verma, Amar Kaushik, and the entire cast and crew of Maddock Films. She concluded her post with a touch of humor, saying, "Ps. Who knew this scary little creature #Munjya would bring so much love & happiness to my life!"
Abhay Verma, who also starred in "Munjya," shared a BTS video on Instagram to mark the anniversary, with the caption, "1 saal se ye realise ho raha hai aapke pyaar se badkar kuch nahi hai."
Sharvari also expressed her fascination with folklore, saying, “Being a Maharashtrian, I've always been fascinated by mythology and folklore. I had heard of Munjya growing up, but when this script came to me, the level of detail and imagination just blew my mind.” She further added, “To see Munjya cross the ₹100-crore mark and still be so loved a year later feels surreal. And the fan celebration today made it all even more special. Walking into the dance workshop and seeing their faces light up genuinely moved me.”
Looking ahead, Sharvari is set to appear alongside Alia Bhatt in "Alpha," which is slated for release on December 25 and is part of Yash Raj Films' Spy Universe.
