“Three of Us”, a Hindi movie starring Shefali Shah, Jaideep Ahlawat, Swanand Kirkire, and Kadambari Kadam in the lead roles was released on November 3, 2023.
Shailaja encounters the initial phases of Alzheimer’s and finds herself reconciling her past, present, and future.
Before the memories fade, she chooses to take a trip back to her younger days.
Shailaja goes off on a challenging journey that forces her to address difficulties around a childhood catastrophe, the inconsistencies of her marriage, and the intricate nature of how she looks.
Shailaja is seen creeping closer to the forgiveness and freedom she was born to have as she journeys over the magnificent Konkan coastline with her spouse and the love of her youth by her side.
Shefali Shah is capable of delivering this as well as much more. She gives all of herself to her role as Shailja, never sacrificing a turn or a drop as the heroine reflects on her past, which includes a slow-burning childhood love that Jaideep Ahlawat plays as Pradeep.
Shailja is swiftly convinced of all she has lost and what more she may continue to lose in a short while by Pradeep.
However, Pradeep’s wife, Sarika (Kadambari Kadam, a livewire if there ever was one), is the most compelling protagonist in this drama of a life redux.
Though she knows her husband’s intense devotion to Shailja, Sarika treats their relationship with the respect it merits.
A priceless snapshot of life captured in cinema is Three of Us. It feels like we come across people we would usually pass on the street without giving them a second thought since their stories are so outstanding in their everydayness.
Something connects first love and remembering. They resemble sorrowful mirages that periodically flash before your eyes.
The best part is that they may provoke both happy and sad emotions interchangeably. Three of Us, starring Shefali Shah and Jaideep Ahlawat, is one such film that will bring you back to your early years.
Furthermore, you can connect to it more easily if you were fortunate enough to spend some of your early years in a small city.
