Mary Kom






That's the thing about movies like this, you get to know more about the personal life of someone relevant. Mary Kom- the movie brought out all the hurdles the boxer had to go through to enjoy the place she is in today. The boxer is from a village in Manipur and is portrayed as someone who is irascible and very violent. Often caught in fights , she was someone who reveled in it.
One fine day, Mary Kom meets her coach and the journey to her world championships start there.
After reaching the peak of her career, Mary Kom decides to marry her love,Onler. Her marriage poses as a break from her career. During that time, she misses her sport deeply and feels she belonged there. After giving birth to twin boys, Mary Kom enters the boxing arena again, with a huge comeback!

Priyanka Chopra stars in the movie as Mary Kom. Apart from her insanely huge lips and flawed make up( in some scenes where she'd put on make up), she is a perfect fit for the role as far as appearance is concerned. She carries us through the journey of the boxer in a beautiful way by evoking the right emotions in the necessary scenes. However, Priyanka Chopra fails in one tiny aspect: She could not portray herself as a Manipuri girl! Not just her looks, but her acting wasn't convincing enough that she was from Manipur. She did give her best shot by pronouncing federation as "phe-deration" but sadly that wasn't convincing enough. In mannerisms , she failed a bit. However, that is hardly important as the movie talks about the greatness of a star and she has done that without a single flaw.
