Madonna confirms she contracted Covid-19 while touring, says she was sick but is 'healthy and well' now

'Mamma Mia' (2008) is a musical that has its fun and light moments. Based on the popular Broadway musical, it is a story of a bride-to-be (Amanda Seyfried), who invited her three possible fathers (Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgård and Colin Firth) to the wedding without telling her mother (Meryl Streep).

In the movie, you will see Streep like you've never seen before.

The sequel to the musical was 'Mamma Mia Here We Go Again', where Seyfried's character is all set to reopen Hotel Bella Donna when she gets to know more about her mother's past.

'Stepmom', a 1998 comedy-drama directed by Chris Columbus, starred Julia Roberts, Susan Sarandon, and Ed Harris in lead roles.

The film, which was later remade in India as 'We Are Family', is the story of a terminally-ill woman Jackie (Sarandon) who has to settle for Isabel (Roberts), her former husband's (Luke) would-be-wife, as the new stepmom for her children. A fun yet weepy journey unfolds as Isabel makes every effort to be accepted by Luke's kids Anna and Ben and their mother Jackie.

The film offers a feel-good factor for the audience and stresses on how motherhood is not all about giving birth; it's about connecting with kids and helping them through the process of growing up.

This Jason Reitman directorial is a comedy-drama based on teenage pregnancy. The film stars Ellen Page and Michael Cera in pivotal roles. The film, till date, is considered to be one of the most-commendable portrayals of motherhood.

16-year-old Juno (Page) finds out she is pregnant with her best friend and boyfriend Cera's baby after a short fling. While she earlier considers an abortion, later, decides to go on with the pregnancy and puts up the baby for adoption.

The film sheds light on every form of motherhood, from being a stepmom to a teenage mother and finally adoption.

Juno's incredibly supportive stepmom Bren (Allison Janney) helps her find Vanessa (Jennifer Garner), the lady who adopts the baby. The film also traces Juno's stint with motherhood, her journey of carrying the baby and then making the tough decision of giving up her child.

This Gauri Shinde directorial is a comedy-drama featuring the late actress Sridevi in a pivotal role. The film, which released in 2012, revolved around the life of Shashi (Sridevi), a homemaker and small entrepreneur who is mocked by her husband and kids for her poor English-speaking skills.

Life takes a twist when she joins English-speaking classes, makes new friends and develops a new sense of self-respect. Sridevi's portrayal of a selfless, loving mother was appreciated by critics. The film was unanimously hailed by audience and became one of India's top 10 highest-grossing films overseas.

Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari's feature debut 'Nil Battey Sannata', a 2015 comedy-drama film, starred Swara Bhasker and Ria Shukla in pivotal roles. The film revolved around the life of Chanda (Bhasker), a school dropout, household maid and single mother who enrolls in the same school and class as her daughter. She does so to encourage her daughter to do well in exams, achieve her dreams and not lead the life that her mother had to. The movie is considered to be one of the sweetest portrayals of a mother-daughter relationship.

Director Garth Davis made his feature debut with the film 'Lion', a biographical drama, in 2016. The film featured Dev Patel, Rooney Mara, David Wenham, Nicole Kidman in lead roles and traced the life of a boy who separates from his family and 25 years later sets out to find them. The movie, which received six Oscar nominations, was one of the highest-grossing Australian films of all time.

Saroo Brierley (Patel) accidentally gets on a train and separates from his family. Later, he is adopted by an Australian family, where he shares an incredibly emotional relationship with his stepmom Sue (Kidman). Their relationship (between an adult boy and his stepmom) is a focal point in the story and is further brought to light with some moving scenes. Kidman's portrayal of a highly fragile adoptive mother was hailed by critics and also got her an Oscar nomination.

Late actress Sridevi, on multiple occassions, has displayed her strengths in the role of a mother. Ravi Udaywar's crime-thriller 'Mom' featured the actress in pivotal role as a mother who sets out to take revenge from four men who gang-rape her step-daughter played by Sajal Ali. The film also starred Akshaye Khanna and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in important roles.

Advait Chandan's musical drama 'Secret Superstar' was another film which saluted all the mothers out there who leave no stone unturned to fulfil the dreams of their kids. The 2017 film starred Zaira Wasim, Meher Vij, Raj Arjun and Aamir Khan in lead roles. When Insia, a 15-year-old girl, living with her mother Najma (Vij), wishes to pursue her dream of becoming a singer, her orthodox father turns out to be a big hurdle. However, her mother, by selling her jewellery and facing the wrath of her husband, supports her daughter throughout until she becomes the country's biggest singing sensation.

Wasim was acclaimed for her performance, and at the box office, the film easily entered the Rs 100 crore club.
