Review / ‘Three of Us’: Of redemption and memories
The morning dawns, darkness not yet fully dispelled, and the sound of crickets persists. Shailaja (played by Shefali Shah) walks alone, silently, her footsteps echoing through the narrow path that leads to the home she left in Kokan, where her childhood memories lie buried. She stands by the well, the same well where she lost her childhood playmate, her sister. For a brief moment, she stands there, as if preserving her 28-year-old memories. Then, with a heavy heart, she resumes her journey. As the curtains fall on this tragic film, the aforementioned final moment of “Three of Us” embodies a profound transformation, akin to a decree of tragic poetry.
