Maja Ma review: Madhuri Dixit earns her calling in this coming-out drama

Firstpost  

In a scene from Amazon Prime’s Maja Ma, a son tells his mother “Maine tumhe bhagwan Mana par tumne toh mera dharam hi cheen liya”. The broader narrative concerns Pallavi’s son Tejas and his attempt to woo, not just his to-be wife but also her parents – here visiting their Gujarati home from America. The performances, especially of the younger actors don’t always stick but Maja Ma is also evidence of the learned charm of experienced actors who can turn it on with the flick of a switch. That said, Maja Ma isn’t a complete waste, thanks largely to Rao and Dixit, both in top form here as a humble middle-class couple – something that never quite explored for all its intricate complexities.
