Shikanji is the star of Mrs. It’s a beverage that stands out in the movie when Richa’s brother-in-law asks her to make it, then refuses to drink after pouring whisky, tastes it, and mansplains the recipe. In the end, it was shikanji who turned the tables around and helped Richa to take that leap. Despite its role in the film, the beverage is known for its refreshing taste and hydrating qualities.
