Sharing the video, she wrote, "Jab #bhakshak shuru ki thi tab @justpulkit ne kahan tha, dekhna bhumi ye kahaani logon ko kabhi chodh nahi payegi. Shooting this film was full of many many moments that still overwhelm me."
She added, "Our 'story' was reality for these children. They were so young that they probably didn't even know what was happening with them. This thought kept us going. We have to make a film free of all corruption and with all the right intentions. This one is beyond a hit or flop. It's about how deep it affects you when you watch it. Today we stand victorious. We felt the impact. Let's not stop. If our film made you feel and the next time you see injustice big or small do your bit. We all have a Vaishali Singh in us."
Bhumi thanked her team.
She continued, "Thank you my incredible team #Bhakshak. And a special thank you @iamsrk @gaurikhan for making this happen. I will always be full of gratitude for you for making me a part of Bhakshak."
