Rani Disappointing, Sridevi impresses in her comeback.

Rani Mukherjee must be repenting having signed Aiyya as her comeback film. More so, this film attached significant importance for this starlet who is in the evening of her career.

Sridevi exhalts in a scene from English Vinglish


It is Sridevi who is lucky to have made her comeback with English Vinglish.

English Vinglish is the story of Shashi Godbole (Sridevi), a woman who doesn’t know English and is made to feel insecure about this by her family and society at large.

The film though light-hearted is about the touching and transformational journey of Shashi.


Gone is the glamorous Hawa Hawai image, and it is just plain Indian woman and her simplicity which is very impressive.

There are a few unrealistic scenes that of a daughter who feels embarrassed to take her mom for PTA meetings, even sniggers at her mothers English, and then that of a smart entrepreneur hindi speaking lady just turning dumb while travelling on a flight to the US. Towards the end it is even so slow in pace, but overall it is a feel good film.
