Kriti Sanon has surely won hearts in the role of Mimi in the recently launched film Mimi. Mimi which was a Dinesh Vijan presentation, was amazing to watch, and whoever watched it has come out with positive reviews and comments for it. However, this film is not the original to be presented. It was first made in Marathi with Urmila Kanetkar playing the lead role.
A report in leisurebyte.com suggests to viewers that one should surely watch the original Marathi film Mala Aai Vhhaychay before watching Mimi. We take the story and reference from the above-mentioned report.
If you loved Sanon’s story in Mimi, you should first take a look at the original film. The report mentions that original is an original afterall!! You would definitely want to watch the Marathi film Mala Aai Vhhaychy before watching its remake.
Samruoddhi Porey has written a story that seems quite raw and honest. The story is set in a village in Maharashtra, and she has aptly captured the life of villagers. Porey’s story focuses on Yashoda (Urmila Kanetkar) and her motherly emotions for a child that doesn’t belong to her. Porey’s story has everything – emotions, jokes, sadness and drama. Marathi film industry’s music is quite underrated, and this film strikes a chord with viewers with its songs.
Urmila Kanetkar carries the entire film on her shoulders. She makes you fall in love with Yashoda’s simplicity, and when she breaks down, it aches you. At times, her performance is OTT, but that’s just how her character is written. Along with Kanitkar, child actor Aiden Barkley also wins you with his cuteness.
