Director Aditya Suhas Jambhale Article 370 has that rare stamp of excellence on every frame that differentiates the pulpy propaganda of the Kashmir and Kerala kind from a film that actually has its research in place and is so focussed on telling a gripping though authentic story, that it forgets there are people out there, lots of them, who don’t want to hear the truth.

The truth, my beloved nation, is not always sugar-coated in cinema. Nor does it need to be unnecessarily brackish. Not that Article 370 takes the middle path. Far from it. The film is crafted with the diligence of a Kashmiri carpet, at the same it conveys the smooth moves of a shikara on Dal Lake. Even when a bomb goes off, there is no stopping absorb the shock.

Am I eulogizing a work that takes off from Frame One and never stops to catch its breath?...

Article 370 Box Office Review: Pre-Release Buzz & Impression

Article 370 falls into a zone of The Kashmir Files and The Kerala Story, where nothing much matters in terms of promotional material apart from the trailer. The trailer that was revealed a couple of weeks ago was power-packed and did its job of raising curiosity. On the ground level, it helped create some sort of undercurrent.

Firstly, the name itself was enough to grab the eyeballs, and the second thing is that the present political scenario in the country suits the film. The kind of subject this Yami Gautam starrer deals with, it was always expected that debates and controversies would occur. Interestingly, that’s working as a main asset of this entertainer.

I have just witnessed history. Director Aditya Suhas Jambhale’s Article 370, has that rare stamp of excellence on every frame that differentiates the pulpy propaganda of the Kashmir and Kerala kind from a film that actually has its research in place and is so focussed in telling a gripping though authentic story, that it forgets there are people out there, lots of them, who don’t want to hear the truth.

This is a must watch movie for all Indians. The narrative is about the abrogation of Article 370 with a brief on what Article 370 is, what it meant, why it remained effective for such a long time and finally the actions taken to abrogate the special status. The story is narrated from the perspective of two fictitious characters who lead the thought of removing the special status of J&k. The reasons narrated through a few episodic sub plots / scenes are the ones we have seen on the national news channels and can relate to the same.

Streaming on Netflix now, the drama, Tribhanga, directed by Renuka Shahane, stars Kajol along with Tanvi Azmi, Mithila Palkar, Kunaal Roy Kapur, Vaibhav Tatwawaadi, and Kanwaljit Singh.

Vaibhav Tatwawaadi, who makes his Netflix debut in film says, “Working in the movie was like attending a master class.”

Continuing with that thought Vaibhav said, “Having an opportunity to work with legends like Kajol ma’am and Tanvi ma’am was like a dream come true. They were very professional and very helpful. As an artist, watching them perform was like attending an acting masterclass, which no training could have taught me.”

Adding further he said, “The icing on the cake was being directed by Renuka Shahane ma’am whose talents I adore. She knew exactly what she wanted from her actors and was very supportive and explained every scene. She also gave us freedom to express ourselves in front of the camera.

Review The Netflix film directed by Renuka Shahane marks the Ott debut of Bollywood actor Kajol, who is seen in a no holds barred, foul-mouthed and fiery avatar.Geetika MantriIt’s a refrain as old as time. As children, many of us think that we are going to do things differently from our parents when it is our turn, only to have our parents tell us that we’ll never understand till we have children of our own. And when the unprecedented challenges of parenthood present themselves, it becomes easier to understand why. Tribhanga, a drama that unfolds across the lives of three generations of women, traverses choppy waters, attempts to showcase the effects of trauma, difficult choices, social prejudice and messy reconciliations in a 95-minute runtime. While underwhelming in parts, the Kajol, Mithila Palkar and Tanvi Azmi starrer is an ode to motherhood and unapologetic women. The Netflix film...

Tribhanga (Netflix)

Starring Kajol,Tanvi Azmi,Mithila Palkar,Kunaal Roy Kapur,Vaibhav Tatwawaadi

Written & Directed by Renuka Shahane

Just like life, Tribhanga is somewhat off-kilter, a little askew, at times uneven and even patchy. But the story of three generations of women from one family, spirited, unorthodox, unfettered, holds together, moles, warts and all. Tribhanga is a fiercely original film, though cinephiles would like to see distinct shades of Ingmar Bergman’s imperishable classic Autumn Sonata in Renuka Shahane’s striking debut film. But that, like much in life, is only an illusion.

The film’s scenes are ignited by the presence of Kajol. The fieriest actress on this side of Fearless Nadia and Geeta Bali, Kajol brings to Tribhanga a kind of unrehearsed ferocity that is at once intimidating, intriguing, and irresistible.

Strangely there aren’t that many confrontation scenes between mother Tanve Azmi and daughter Kajol. Maybe Ms.

The movie is written and directed by Renuka Shahane. Starring Kajol, Tanvi Azmi and Mithila Palkar in the leading roles, the movie will release on 15 January 2021 on Netflix.
