She, who plays a mother onscreen revealed that she fell in love with the script and could easily relate to the character, "I fell in love with the script and the character. When I met Gauri Shinde, the director, we instantly clicked. As a mother, as a woman, I could relate to the character and felt it was a universal story," said Sridevi about the film that is slated to release on October 5.
