Soon after that, Twitterati flooded the micro-blogging platform with their thoughts about the film and for paying a tribute to the late actor, making the hashtag '#3YearsofMOM' trend on Twitter. For her outstanding performance in MOM, Sridevi was posthumously honoured with the National Award for Best Actress, in 2018, which marks the veteran actor's first-ever National Award. The Ravi Udyawar directorial not only garnered positive response from the masses and film critics but also minted over ₹100 crores at the box office and went on to become a blockbuster film.
MOM also marked Sridevi's 300th film and her final film as a lead actor before her tragic death on February 24, 2018. However, her last on-screen appearance was in 2018's romantic comedy-drama, Zero. She had a cameo in the Anand L. Rai directorial and the late legend starred as herself in Zero. Her portions in the film were shot before her untimely death in the same year.
