Maya (Kajol) is the perfect mother. Her life revolves around her three children, Aleya (Aanchal Munjal), Ankush (Nominath Ginsburg), and Anjali (Diya Sonecha), who think nothing less than the world of her. Despite being divorced from her husband, Aman (Arjun Rampal) Maya has ensured that everything runs smoothly in her house, under her watch, and that they continue to remain a happy family unit. However, when Aman introduces his girlfriend, Shreya (Kareena Kapoor) a career oriented woman, who has a lot to learn about children, to the family, the situation immediately takes an unexpected turn.

When an incident changes their lives drastically, bringing the two women under the same roof, they find themselves putting to test an unusual situation; can two mothers make a home? Forced to make some unorthodox choices for her family, Maya must confront her uneasy equation with Shreya and find a way to bring everyone together, despite their differences, to make them a family once again. Can they make a happy home and proudly say… We Are Family!

Yet, the pathos here is produced not from moments, but from performances alone: a stunning Kajol’s in particular

This is the kind of film where all the moms and stepmoms of the world are assured to cry buckets. Watch it for some ‘familiar’ entertainment

A regressive, boring film strictly for soap-lovers

Mint

At the end of two hours, debut director Sidharth Malhotra's film - which is intended to be a sob story - did leave the audience in tears. Of boredom.
