We will not know the meaning of Tribhangha until the middle of the story. It is a posture used in classical Odissi dance form since protagonist Anuradha (Kajol) is a dancer. We wondered in the beginning why choose Kajol who is definitely not known for her dancing skills. Cleverly the makers have not made her to dance. We were curious for one more reason because it was written and directed by Renuka Shahane.
Nayantara (Azmi) a well-known writer is in comatose after a brain stroke. Her estranged daughter (Kajol) and son (Vaibhav), and granddaughter (Palkar) were forced to be present in the hospital along with Milan (Kapoor) who is writing an autobiography on Nayantara.
It is a tale of three women of different generations and their choices. The relationships are complicated. Or do we make it complicated? It is about imperfect mothers. Contrary to societal belief mothers need not be perfect. They are humans too. Their decisions, choices are often questioned. Sometimes their decisions may leave scar on the psyche of children. It is our belief that most of the time mothers have their kids' best interest at heart.
A beautiful heart-warming film
