This film didn’t have their release date confirmed until the last week of July. And because it’s such a good film we couldn’t resist including it in our August list. Mimi is based on the concept of couples searching for cheap surrogacy by looking for Indian nationals who are strapped for cash. A couple from America travel to Rajasthan hoping to find a surrogate when they meet Mimi. Mimi has dreams of becoming a Bollywood star but does not have the money so decides she will be their surrogate. The film has a number of twists and turns but it is done in a comical way which makes it very interesting.
