Tribhanga

I wasn't expecting much but this movie left me in tears. I was weeping at the end of it.

I liked that it was bilingual to some extent -made it very authentic.

As a cinephile, this was great story telling. I hated kajol in the beginning how brash and obnoxious she was and not to mention abusive (seemed to close to her real life persona from movies).

Then as the movie progressed, it made sense why she was the way she was. Kunal Roy Kapur also stole the show, you feel for him.

The movie shines light on women and their choices in Indian patriarchal system and also children coming from "broken families". It was heart touching the way everything was dealt.

Surprised to see Kajol is such a dark movie + the movie made by some of the big names in Bollywood. Definitely, a great attempt at storytelling and also directing from a debutant director.

Kudos to Renuka Shahane.

Give it a try. It is a nice and simple story and brilliant acting from its star cast. But like always few curse words would have been avoided, cus i haven't seen a lady in her 40's using so many curse word, specially if she comes from a decent family.

"Tribhanga" tells the stories of three generations of women tied by an incident in the most unconventional way. The film very beautifully defies and questions the patriarchal society, avoiding preachiness throughout. Directed by a lady, the film delves deep into the emotions of womanhood and charting from what appears to be an unlikeable protagonist puts the audiences into different perspectives to understand the complexity of life. Aside the foul language which might make some viewers uncomfortable, the film is one of its kind for the beautiful characters, performances, and simply its storytelling.

Rating: 2.5 stars out of 4.

Story 👎 Acting/Character of Milan, Nayan, Anu 👍 Others so so, overacting 👎 Cinematography 👍

Be ready to get enthralled by watching three unique and fascinating levels of Tribhanga and the inherent correlations, performed by seasoned and convincing dancers, well worthy of a loud applause. Kudos to the choreographer, Renuka Shahane.
