English Vinglish
A movie that accurately depicts of sentiments of parents when their children grow up and often become insensitive due to the generation gap. The movie highlights the need to be patient and loving towards our parents, regardless of the circumstances.
It’s an Indian movie with a great message never to give up. The moment you stop trying, your failure begins. It’s never too late to learn anything that you think is impossible for you. There is no age limit to set challenges and ace them, be it any talent, hobby, or a new language. If you lack somewhere, you should still wear confidence and stand out so that no one makes it possible to belittle you. English is just a language, and it has nothing to do with measuring intelligence level.

It also serves as a motivation that determination can take you anywhere you wish to see yourself. This story revolves around an ordinary local man living an everyday life where the struggle to meet expenses was real.One thing that kept him going was that he never stopped dreaming. He knew that he tended to chase his dreams. He firmly believed that no one could decide your power; let no one ever tell you that you can’t do it.
You are a lot more capable of doing anything that you dream of. It just needs a little bit of recognition of your dreams. A pathway where you wish to see yourself. Dreams do come true, but it’s not a piece of cake. Work hard and fake it till you make it. Don’t announce it until you have achieved it. Lastly, pursue happiness above all!
