Plot Summary
Ijaazat captures a moment in time whose reality is construed by memories of times gone, some forgotten, some remembered. The movie explores the intricacies of a love triangle in which sincerity , love and fidelity are as if doomed by the triangular pattern. All characters have the sincerest of feelings and the best of intentions but remain helpless before the irony of their situation. The subtlety of the film matches the delicacy of the subject it approaches, as it meanders through moments of intimacy to depict emotions that loom like invisible giants: unsaid, unexpressed but keenly felt and haunting. All characters are as distinct as they are remarquable : Maaya(Anuradha Patel), the intractable and independent free-spirited girl evasive as the morning breeze and like it, always lingering behind; Suddha(Rekha), the composed Indian wife with a quite and docile Eastern beauty. Mahinder (Naseerudin Shah) caught between on one hand, his devotion for his wife and on the other, his strange attraction for Maaya. The action revolves around Suddha's unannounced decision to leave home after learning of her husband's repeated contacts with Maaya. Five years from the day she leaves and unknown to her, Mahinder suffers a heart attack, they accidentally meet in a railway station. Smoothly and unconsciously, each glides into their former role, he the careless husband and she the wife, bringing order with her touch, now as before, his better half. In the one night that they spend together waiting, each grapples with a past that had long since remained dormant. One questions and the other explains, one narrates and the other mourns. They journey through a host of memories more vivid perhaps in the recollection that they were in the living. It's a trail of tears and laughter, of joy and sorrow, of anguish and ecstacy. Conjuring up from the past some figments they lived together and others they missed out upon, they tie up all the ends left loose - almost. Nothing can prepare the reader for the final irony of the movie. By the most relentless of criteria, the movie qualifies as sublime - the acting, songs, music, poetry, the story-line as much as the conception - all is top-notch.
