' Judaai ', released in 1997 was the last movie of the talented actress Sridevi . After about a decade and a half, she is making her comeback with the film ' English Vinglish ', which has been produced by R. Balki . The adman-turned-filmmaker has earlier directed movies like ' Cheeni Kum ' and ' Paa ', which were critically acclaimed. But this movie has been directed by his wife Gauri Shinde .

Sridevi , in the movie, plays a simple woman who struggles to speak in English. After seeing the actress in movies like ' Chaalbaaz ', ' Mr. India ' and ' Judaai ', one can very well imagine that she must have done justice with this role.

R. Balki said, "' English Vinglish ' is a very special film for me because it marks the comeback of Sridevi , possibly one of the greatest performers. It was written and discussed keeping Sridevi in mind." He also said, "There is a lot of struggle and lot of people in the country who are insecure because they don't know English. The film tackles that."
