On Mother’s Day, watch these titles celebrating maternal instinct in all its complexity

India TV News  

Mothering comes with its own challenges and these films acknowledge that reality. Where to watch: Netflix English Vinglish Unlike the grimly predictable 'Mom' that turned out to be megastar Sridevi’s swan song, this 2012 Gauri Shinde film treated motherhood with much more nuance and insight. The film also starred Sharvani Suryavanshi, Abhishek Banerjee, Sadiya Siddiqui, Vikas Kumar, Manuj Sharma, Sudhir Pandey, Kiran Khoje, and Smita Tambe in major roles. Where to watch: Amazon Prime Video and Sony MAX Secret Superstar This 2017 Aamir Khan production explored how in conservative households, patriarchy oppresses both mothers and daughters. Despite addressing grim issues like gender roles and domestic abuse, the film had a fairy tale quality about it as it traced the flight of an aspiring singer towards self expression and freedom.
