When a movie lets you laugh, cry, think and inspire you to become a better person, it means that it's a must-watch. Mimi is precisely one of those movies.In 2013 an American couple is looking for a surrogate in India to bear their baby. The research isn’t easy, but new possibilities appear when they meet Bhanu, the driver. After a couple of funny misunderstandings, Bhanu learns what they need, and the solution is Mimi. Will Bhanu succeed? Is Mimi going to be a movie’s star? Will the Americans have their baby? And what are we going to learn? All the details at SpotaMovie.com

This movie is so highly rated that I expected much more from it. I was a little disappointed. I've enjoyed most of Laxman Utekar's work as a cinematographer, but with Mimi, the screenplay and directing are just not quite tight enough for modern cinema. Not that the movie isn't enjoyable. It is easy to watch and enjoy. The premise and conflict are reasonable. (Although I understand this practice involving foreigners is now illegal anyway.) I just expected more from Utekar I guess.
