Eventually she performs exceptionally well and gets through the Indian Cricket team. We take it for granted that girls are bad at sports and this film is a tight slap on all our faces.

English Vinglish

How an ordinary house wife learns fluent English is an inspiration for all those women who've been looked down upon for so long amidst the male-dominated mindset.

Queen

Taare Zameen Par

Children with special needs are often overlooked and treated with much insensitivity when they instead deserve to be handled with tenderness and affection. This film can literally teach one how to treat such children and also how to become a real teacher.
