Kajol in Tribhanga (2021) | Netflix
When the movie star Anu sees her novelist mother Nayan comatose in hospital, she has a decidedly unsympathetic reaction. Perfect, snarls Anu, she’s in a silent zone.
At least it’s better than the time Anu shoves Nayan and tells her, I hate you, you are a sick woman.
Behind this seemingly irreconcilable estrangement is a complicated family history, forged by hard choices and unintended consequences. Renuka Shahane’s
Tribhanga is at its most affecting when it examines the spontaneous reactions of its characters to their circumstances. Constantly taunted by her oppressive mother-in-law and let down by her effete husband, Nayan (Tanvi Azmi) walks out of her marital home with her children Anu and Robindro.
Director: Renuka Shahane
Itna pyaar hai mere bachchon mein aur itni badhi khaai unke aur mere beech mein. Kabhi kabhi sochti hoon kaash yeh mere kirdaar hote, phir mein unne apni manchahi disha mein le jaati, says Nayan (Tanvi Azmi) before she takes a brief pause and continues,
Aur phir woh mujhse pyaar kartey. Kaash mein apne aapse rishton ki kadwahat mitta paati.
There s pain in her voice, there s hope too. Off the screen, director Renuka Shahane holds the power to mould her characters in her Hindi directorial debut
Tribhanga, and boy, she does her part exceptionally well!

We’re the product of our choices, as they say. And have to suffer the consequences of both good and bad choices. No one makes perfect choices. What’s important is that those choices should be our own choices and shouldn t be imposed on us. Living with the consequences of a wrong choice, as long as it was an independent choice, is still a victory at least that’s the lesson of the film. Tribhanga, whose title is taken from a dance pose in Odissi dance, looks at the life of three generations of women who made their own choices and how those choices affected them and those around them.

There s something about a woman s heart, a mother-daughter relationship; you are aware that it is the purest form of love which arrives without any expectation of getting something else in return. Yet, any relationship with a woman always comes with complications.
The women, Anuradha Apte (Kajol), Nayanthara Apte (Tanvi Azmi) and the son Robindro (Vaibhav Tatwawaadi) are three differently rooted Indian man and women, who exhale in their own creative ways.
Nayan, is a ferocious writer, who is unable to breathe when she doesn t own a pen. Anu who is also a woman of talent, in Odissi, is unable to understand her passionate mom, mainly because somewhere the like poles repel. She connects more with her brother Robindro. This mother-daughter story does not just end in creative rebellion, but hate arises when women fail to stand by one another during the toughest phase in their lives.

Tribhanga Review: Genteel Ode To Women Starring Kajol Merits Three Cheers
Tribhanga Review: Kajol provides the frisson that the understated film needs but it is Tanvi Azmi who is the real star of the show. Mithila Palkar has much less to do but steps up to the plate when she needs to.

For women, no matter how independent they are, surmounting patriarchal stumbling blocks is a huge challenge. It always was. It still is. In
