Phir Milenge is being taken to the Cannes Film Festival as an entry in a category by UNAIDS. This announcement was made by the makers of the film at a press conference in Mumbai.

The director, Revathy indicated that she made the film since she was already involved in a lot of social causes, and for a film like this it was enough that more and more people see it in the theatre.

The special aspect of the occasion was that the crew of the film, including the actors and director, who had agreed to do the film without remuneration were presented with cheques for their efforts.
