Mumbai, February 8: Actress Renuka Shahane is thrilled about the release of her upcoming film ‘Uttar.’ In the film, she plays the character Uma, which holds special significance for her. She describes Uma as embodying patience, deep love, and an unspoken hope, remaining positive even in tough times.
The film tells a sensitive story of a mother-son relationship, highlighting generational gaps and emotional silence in today’s fast-paced life. ‘Uttar’ focuses on love, connection, forgiveness, and the beauty of relationships.
Uma is portrayed as a mother whose unique approach keeps the family together. Meanwhile, her son Ninad is progressing in life but inadvertently drifting away from home. The film illustrates how relationships often break not due to conflict, but from waiting for the right time, words, and moments.
Discussing her role, Renuka Shahane expressed, “Playing Uma was a deeply emotional experience. Her silence speaks louder than her words. I am happy that ‘Uttar’ is now ready to reach a wider audience, allowing its emotions to resonate deeply.”
Director Kshitij Patwardhan shared, “This film is crafted with a special story to always resonate with audiences—gentle, unresolved, and very human. We address those moments we tend to postpone, thinking there is still time. With its digital premiere, viewers will connect with the film. We hope it becomes a personal and memorable story that leaves a lasting impression on the audience.”
According to the makers, the film is based on everyday truths, capturing those delicate moments when time slips away, and life poses questions we are unprepared for. Crafted with sensitivity and genuine emotions, this story compels viewers to reflect on relationships they assume will wait for them.
‘Uttar’ is written and directed by Kshitij Patwardhan and produced by ZEE Studios and Jackpot ENTERTAINMENT. The film will stream on the ZEE5 platform starting February 13, featuring Renuka Shahane alongside other key cast members.
