This poignant milestone is not just a celebration of the movie but also a tribute to the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput, whose performance in the film left an indelible mark on the hearts of millions.

Sanjana's caption eloquently captures the essence of her journey and the impact of Dil Bechara on her life. She writes:

"4 years to this most special day.  A day for me to reflect on the unbelievable journey thus far, and immerse myself in nostalgia.  Can never be grateful enough for the boundless love you have all given Dil Bechara and Kizie Basu, always and always.  Can never be grateful enough for the excitement I feel in my heart to be given this opportunity to entertain you all.  Thank you. A million times over.️  Miss you Sush.️”

These words reflect a deep sense of gratitude and nostalgia, emphasizing the incredible journey she has experienced since the film's release. The movie, an adaptation of John Green's novel The Fault in Our Stars was not only a professional milestone for Sanjana but also a personal one, deeply intertwined with memories of her co-star Sushant Singh Rajput.

Sushant Singh Rajput's untimely demise in 2020, just a month before the film's release, cast a long shadow over the film's reception. Dil Bechara became a symbol of his legacy, with fans and critics alike praising his portrayal of Manny, a spirited and charming character who brought life to the screen.

Sanjana’s post poignantly acknowledges this, as she expresses her heartfelt remembrance of Sushant, highlighting the profound bond they shared during the making of the film.

The release of Dil Bechara on Disney Plus Hotstar during the pandemic offered solace and a sense of connection to audiences isolated by lockdowns and uncertainty. It quickly became one of the most-watched films on the platform, a testament to Sushant’s enduring popularity and the film's emotional resonance.

This sentiment reflects the widespread admiration and respect Sushant garnered from his colleagues in the industry, further solidifying his legacy as an actor who left an indelible mark on Indian cinema.
