Mrs. Chatterjee vs. Norway

Phew, the film touched me on many levels.

The first half was hard to bear as Rani Mukerji was very 'emotional', maybe a little bit over it.

Unfortunately, the focus here was more on the theatricality than on the essentials.

Thus, the viewer learns almost nothing about the Norwegian 'culture' of raising children.

As a mother, it is difficult to understand why it should not be okay for a child to sleep in the parents' bed or why it should be bad that children from Indian homes get a khola.

Also, it was not even illuminated that the husband was violent towards his wife - the viewer learns this at the very edge.

Many questions remained unanswered for me.

The second half of the film - back in India - offered a very different Rani.

Still fighting for her children, but less theatrical.

Then I would like to find it frightening how cultural differences have been dealt with in Europe.

Our society can only grow through diversity.

A good story , top notch acting by all the crew and bow down to Rani Mukherjee she played character so well.i wish this movie a good luck.

I watched this movie because of previous knowledge of this case and movie doesn't disappointed me . Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway rests on Rani Mukerji's shoulder and she carries the film well .

Filmmaker Ashima Chibber's film Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway stars Rani Mukerji as Debika Chatterjee who is separated from her two young children by the Norway Children's Welfare Program on the pretext of bad parenting. Based on a real-life incident that took place in 2011.

Mrs Chatterjee vs Norqay is a bold, heart-rending and equally engrossing film. Based on a real life incident, this film is a true testimony of a mother's compassion, love and affection towards her own children. Bolstered by a towering performance by Rani, an ensemble cast's brilliance, surreal music by Amit Trivedi and powerful screenplay which stays true to its subject in its entirety, MCVN gives you ample moments of melancholy and joy. Overall one of the best real life inspired stories made in Bollywood.

MCVN is a brilliant ode to all the resilience shown by Sagarika Bhattacharya , the real hero behind the story. A fight against an entire nation just get her kids back while she gets no support from his spouse in an unknown country is no joke. Credits to the entire team for making such a moving film . Ashima Chibber truely captures the anxiety and restlessness of a mother without being peachy and over the top. Yes it has its share of flaws of Rani being at a high pitch initially and doing too much but as the film progresses the she gets a good hold of the depth of the character and gives a solid nuaced performance which will be remembered. Anirban is brilliant and gets you pissed easily. Jim Sarb is exceptional in his restraint and understated performance. The other ensemble cast is just brilliant too.

Sameer lodaya

One has to see this movie for realising the mothers actual power and what can she do for her children

What a content to watch and that too a real story a big salute to the mother who fought so wisely to get her children back in a foreign land

The direction of aashima was very sharp and have shown the audiences the real pain of a mother went through whose children were snatched away from her and how she fought to get them back

Rani played very well with her Bengali accent mixed with little English Jim was wow for his small and strong role

Some good edit was needed in first half as it was going dull but they picked up very strong the second half ..good songs were missing ..little more pain and emotions was required..a experienced and strong female actor like Supriya Pathak was needed as a lawyer

A must must must watch.

These are the types of film Bollywood need to venture into. Stop all the song and dance in every film.

This film has you hooked from start to finish and pulls your emotions in every direction. Rani depicts the character amazingly and gives the audience a true sense of all the emotions she is trying to convey in her acting.

Would give it 11/10 if I could only because Iv stopped watching hing Bollywood films that are now just sexualised and all about the songs. This has a true sense of emotional connection with its audience.

Will recommend for anyone wanting a little cry 😅

Master class acting from Rani.
