ENGLISH VINGLISH

Sashi (Sridevi), a middle-aged Maharashtrian housewife who earns her

own money by making sumptuous ladoos and selling them to the

connoisseurs. A lot of women would identify with Sashi since she is

one of those dedicated yet taken-for-granted homemakers who are

ridiculed for their poor linguistic skills by their English speaking family.

In the movie, Sashi finds herself being an object of constant potshots

by her husband (Adil Hussain), who has little respect for her real talent

and her 7th grade daughter who feels ashamed to even introduce her

mother to her school folks. So when an underestimated and belittled

Sashi flies off to New York to lend a helping hand at her niece’s wedding,

she smartly grabs the opportunity to enroll herself into English

speaking classes that promise to teach the language within a period

of flat four weeks.
