Judaai, starring Anil Kapoor, Sridevi, and Urmila Matondkar, celebrated 26 years of its release on 28 February. The romantic drama, directed by Raj Kanwar, first hit the silver screen in 1997.

On the occasion, Anil took to Instagram to share some pictures from the film. The actor also penned a heartfelt note, in which he opened up about his decision to do the film.

In his caption, Anil wrote, "The decision to do Judaai was not easy one for me at the time, but I’m so glad that I chose to do it! I was paired with two beautiful leading ladies – Sri and Urmila and I still remember how nervous I was, dancing with Sri Ji and Urmila as they both are such incredible dancers! 26 years later today, when I think about the film and all the memories I made I always have a smile on my face!"
