for
the

Film.
Remembering
his

movie,
Anupam
wrote
on
Twitter,
"My
1st

released
on
25th
May,

I

36
years

It

been
an
incredible
journey
so
far.
God
has
been
kind.
And
you,
my

have
given
me
so
much
love.

Director

Bhatt
too
celebrated
36
years
of
the
film
as
he
wrote,
"36
years
of
SAARANSH!
He
was
just
28
years
old
when
he
made
his
debut
in
this
iconic
role
of
a
school
teacher
who
has
lost
his
son
in
an
act
of
senseless
violence.
Thank
you,

helping
me

inspired
creation.

Anupam
replied

tweet,
"Thank
you
@MaheshNBhatt
Saab
for
your
faith,
generosity,
kindness
and
love.
I
would've
never
had
this
kind
of
journey
if
my
first
film
was
not
#Saaransh.
It
changed
my
life
and
me.
