Actress Rhea Chakraborty on Thursday reacted to a post shared by her brother Showik on one year of his jail release.

Showik, on the other hand, had penned down a long note and said, "A year later…From being down under to rising up - this one year has taught me what I couldn’t learn in the 24 years of my being. The value of normalcy, the true expression of love and the meaning of gratitude. This year carved me into the person i am now, and I have nothing but gratitude to be here - ‘Home’ with my family and friends. I want to thank everyone who stood by my family - you’ll truly were our 'lifelines' Onwards and upwards from here on."

Love you with all of me. Now and forever." Anusha commented, "No one has soldiered through this with more courage, dignity and kindness in their heart! You are everything and more! Love you more than anything my sweet little bro! Beyond proud of the human that you are It is an honour to know you."
