New Delhi, Filmmaker Saurabh Shukla's directorial 'Jab Khuli Kitaab', featuring Dimple Kapadia and Pankaj Kapur, is set to release on March 6 on ZEE5.
The film blends humour and heartache to offer a rare, sensitive portrayal of late-life love and the courage it takes to start over.
According to a press release, the makers released the trailer of the film on Monday, offering a glimpse into the quiet, familiar world of Gopal and Anusuya, a couple bound by 50 years of shared routines, memories, and silent understanding.
Their seemingly peaceful life takes an unexpected turn when Anusuya reveals a long-buried secret, shaking the very core of their relationship.
Struggling to come to terms with the revelation, Gopal finds himself torn between heartbreak and dignity, eventually choosing to pursue divorce.
Their story leads them to a young lawyer, played by Aparshakti Khurana, where difficult conversations begin to unravel years of unspoken emotions, lingering pain, and buried affection.
Pankaj Kapur praised Shukla and said it's 'rare to find a filmmaker who chooses to shine a spotlight on older, mature love, and to do it with such honesty, humour, and tenderness.'
Dimple Kapadia said her character Anusuya has been written with depth and honesty, adding that it was a joy to explore her many shades.
'Jab Khuli Kitaab' is presented by Applause Entertainment and produced under the Shoestrap Films banner.
