Abhay
Deol
took
to
his
Instagram
handle
to
celebrate
13
years
since
the
release
of
his
film
Manorama:
Six
Feet
Under.
The
movie,
which
received
overwhelmingly
positive
reviews
from
critics
and
was
thought
to
be
ahead
of
its
time,
slipped
under
the
radar
for
audiences.
Abhay
shared
how
people
still
ask
him
if
the
film
ever
released
in
theatres,
and
that
if
he
had
a
rupee
for
every
time
someone
asked
him
that,
he
would
be
a
millionaire!
Sharing
a
poster
of
the
film,
Abhay
wrote
as
caption,
"My
film
Manorama
6
feet
under
released
in
2007.
They
say
it
was
ahead
of
its
time
for
India.
I
say
that
I
got
tired
of
hearing,
'I
saw
it
on
dvd,
I
loved
it,
when
was
this
film
even
released!?'"
He
continued,
"If
I
had
a
rupee
for
every
time
someone
said
that
I'd
be
a
multi
millionaire!
At
the
start
of
this
century
no
one
in
power
had
the
faith
that
experimentation
would
work
with
an
Indian
audience.
Hence
even
if
one
managed
to,
the
film
would
barely
have
any
screens
or
marketing.
I
always
believed
that
the
audience
is
way
smarter
than
we
give
them
credit
for.
Had
I
not
believed
that,
I
wouldn't
have
made
the
films
I've
made."
