The tone of the film has been maintained throughout as Nostalgic and manages to set a Reflective mood. In addition to that, elements such as an old almirah and green painted walls are used to evoke nostalgia. In fact, the mother turning the pages of a Black & White photo album with her elderly hands, reminded me so much of my own grandmother. The storytelling is simple, yet the narration feels warm and home-like. Ritika’s dialogues are written with a hint of sarcasm that makes the character realistic and can make you chuckle a couple of times. The story unfolds as Ritika invites her estranged husband, Rajeev, to her mother’s birthday celebrations. She reminds him that his relationship with his mother-in-law was supposed to be independent of the relationship between the couple. The movie goes into flashback where we learn that Rajeev is a wildlife photographer who was married before he fell in love with Ritika, a corporate employee. Their budding romance has been beautifully captured in picturesque locations like the Living Root Bridge and the clear green waters of Dawki. The location aligns with the narrative of the film. As they hike through the caves together, the film gives an important insight into Rajeev’s character. The trauma from his previous marriage and its impact on his current relationship with Ritika is a sub-plot that has been well explored. The audience will be able to understand Rajeev’s character in entirety by the end of the film. Rajeev agrees to travel with her to West Bengal to celebrate the birthday. Ritika’s mother is unaware of the recent developments between the two. She worries about her daughter’s health and urges Rajeev to take care of his wife while she treats him well and wishes to make his stay special. Rajeev waits for Ritika to break the news to her mother. As Ritika spends more time at home, she notices that her mother suffers from memory loss. The mother goes from forgetting simple things like where she carefully hid her valuable jewelry, to not remembering bigger milestones like her daughter growing up. Amidst all this, Ritika is unable to find a suitable moment to discuss her personal life with her mother. Sharmila Tagore wonderfully portrays the sweet innocence of someone who is helpless in her worsening condition. While Rituparna plays a worried daughter who springs into action by booking an appointment with the doctor immediately, Indraneil plays a nonchalant son-in-law who has a different take on things. Rajeev finds creative ways to feed his mother-in-law when she makes seemingly unrealistic demands. Rajeev’s efforts are a reciprocation of the times when she too used her creativity to feed him fusion food. Ritika seeks his advice on the upcoming birthday celebrations to which he suggests that if their mother is dwelling in the past, they could simply let her be. They explore the storeroom together to find some old tangible items that bring back memories of the forgotten past.
