A typical family drama

Way back in late 80s-90s, family dramas which featured melodramatic cliches made careers out of actors like Govinda & Alka Kubal in Hindi & Marathi cinemas respectively. Hyped as the first Marathi film to be shot in USA, the film turns out to be a disappointment thanks to cliches shown in the films of similar nature. The plot involves an aged lady going to USA to meet her son whose presence acts as a irritant for her daughter in law. The first half showcases the struggle the lady has to face especially getting adjusted to the culture of the other nation as well as the language barrier she has to face. In the second half the lady changes her attitude and the remaining film showcases how she earns the respect of her detractors. The main highlight of the film was the performance of its main lead Dr. Meena Nerurkar (also the film's director) who is well supported by actors like Sai Gundewar & Apurva Bhalerao. The cinematography considering a Marathi film shot in USA was equally good. Unfortunately, due to the films of similar nature, the end product leaves a lot to be desired. The talented actors like Vikram Gokhale & Vijay Chavan were also not utilized as per their potential.

On the whole it is a strict one time watch and in case the viewers are interested they better watch classic melodramas/tearjerkers starring Alka Kubal which on a sarcastic note greatly glorified the struggles of a woman.
