Cinema legend Sridevi's 300th film made headlines for several reasons. Apart from bringing together three heavyweight actors - Sridevi, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Akshaye Khanna, the film opened to rave reviews with the trade and industry praising Sridevi's choice of picking a bold and unconventional subject to mark 50 years of her successful film career. Directed by Ravi Udyawar, with music by A R Rahman , MOM apart from making an impact in India, also created ripples internationally and was even screened to qualify for the 75th Golden Globe Awards in the foreign film category.
