Shell without external utilities (fast):
Code:
vdate=${filename%.*}
vdate=${vdate##*[!0-9]}

awk version:
Code:
vdate=$(echo "$filename" | awk -F. '{$0=$(NF-1)}/^[0-9]+$/')

@Ravindersingh: That works with the given input, but it would be unreliable, since it would render the wrong result if there is so much as a single digit anywhere else in the filename.
