What happens
Mimi is a 2021 Indian Hindi-language comedy drama film directed by Laxman Utekar and produced by Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films. A remake of the 2011 Marathi film Mala Aai Vhhaychy!, it stars Kriti Sanon as the eponymous lead who opts to be a surrogate mother for a foreign couple. Pankaj Tripathi, Sai Tamhankar, Manoj Pahwa, Supriya Pathak, Evelyn Edwards, and Aidan Whytock appear in supporting roles. Mimi was announced in August 2019. Filming was held in Rajasthan and Mumbai between October 2019 to January 2021, and was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The film score and soundtrack were composed by A. R. Rahman with lyrics written by Amitabh Bhattacharya. Following non-existent theatrical releases due to the pandemic, Mimi was planned for a digital release through the streaming services Netflix and JioCinema on 30 July 2021. However, it was released through the platforms on 26 July 2021, 4 days prior as the film was released accidentally by JioCinema and went into torrent sites. At the 69th National Film Awards, Mimi won 2 awards – Best Actress (Sanon) and Best Supporting Actor (Tripathi). At the 67th Filmfare Awards, Mimi received 6 nominations, including Best Music Director (Rahman) and Best Female Playback Singer (Shreya Ghoshal for "Param Sundari"), and won 3 awards – Best Actress (Sanon), Best Supporting Actor (Tripathi) and Best Supporting Actress (Tamhankar).
