Directed by Saket Chaudhary, 'Hindi Medium' is a story about how education that is supposed to be a tool of enlightenment has become a tool to create inequality. This inequality is created on the basis of English medium schools versus regional language schools and private schools versus government schools.
'Hindi Medium' has been described as a light-hearted romantic film about a young couple in Chandni Chowk in Delhi who aspire to move into society's upper crust.
Saket Chaudhary had earlier denied allegations that the film was copied from the 2014 Bengali family drama film 'Ramdhanu'.
The makers of Irrfan Khan-starrer 'Hindi Medium' pushed the release date of the film by one week as the makers feel it needs to be promoted better. It will hit the screens on May 19, clashing with 'Half Girlfriend'.
'Hindi Medium', which was earlier slated to release alongside 'Meri Pyaari Bindu' and 'Sarkar 3' on May 12, marks the Bollywood debut of Pakistani actress Saba Qamar.
