Rani Mukherjee knows how to play a strong character and this film is no different. We have always admired men in uniform, and Mardaani is a film where you will see a woman in the uniform dealing with criminals, arresting human trafficking gang and rescuing young girls from their talons. This movie is a slap to everyone who underestimates women and think that we can't protect ourselves.
In India, women aren't allowed to express themselves, follow their heart or live the kind of lives they'd want. And this movie depicts the tale of 4 women, their dreams, desires, and struggles. Excellently directed by Alankrita Shrivastava, this film has won millions of hearts across the country and is a must-watch movie for every woman, and in fact guy, out there.
This movie is about a middle-aged woman who is a loving wife and a doting mother but still doesn't get respect from her family because she doesn't know english. So, she starts taking english classes and shuts up everyone who had ever doubted her. Another reason to watch this movie is, of course, Sridevi.
