MOM is a film which in generally expected as a Sridevi's comeback film, which I can't buy. She is too good a actor to have to make a come back. And it has to be a film like MOM which she deserves every bit. Now as far as the movie is concerned, Mom has every element to be a successful film per se to made with the executable and controlled budget.
The biggest plus point I feel about this movie is its content. No item songs, no big star, of course apart from Sridevi and no slice or flavor of any commercial arena, it's purely a content-cum-woman-oriented film. Above all, it's a film made by a debutante director name "Ravi Udyawar's first film and choosing this story to make a mark is a huge salute to him.
The film raises a lot of questions per se in India particularly in New Delhi about the woman's safety in questions to Nirbhaya's arena and also dwells with the concept of not-so smooth relationship with a young girl played by Sajal Ali relationship with her Stepmom. It's a nice amalgamation of a mom's relationship with her step-daugter and how she handles it.
To summarize a bit, it's a journey of a woman who is her mom, which to protect her daughter not only has to choose from wrong and worse wrong, which is very impact full.
Performance wise, Sridevi is as usual as its best, great to see her in that role, nawazuddin is cracker and moving leaps ahead film by film. Music is ok, average and suits the rhythm of the film and cinematography is really excellent.
Over all after a very long time, I have seen a very good movie which is full of content and performance, which we hardly see in today's commercial cinema zone.
