The film was directed by Ravi Udyawar and produced by Sridevi's husband Boney Kapoor. Mom was Sridevi's last film as a lead actor while she had a brief cameo in 2018 film Zero, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma. Sridevi had already shot her scenes for Zero before she passed away in February 2018.
Mom revolves around Sridevi, as a vigilante, who sets out to avenge a crime committed against her step-daughter (played by Sajal Ali). Akshaye Khanna plays the role of a cop while Nawazuddin Siddiqui plays the role of a private detective.
The film won two National Awards - Best Actress for Sridevi and Best Background Score for AR Rahman. Mom has already been released in Poland, Czech, Russia, UAE, UK, USA, and Singapore.

Producer Boney Kapoor still finds it tough to come to terms with the death of his wife and actress Sridevi and says it is impossible to forget her. Boney broke down while talking about her in film trade analyst Komal Nahta's talk show Aur Ek Kahani.
The producer shared his plight on the talk show and said: "There has to be someone who understands that I haven't used my money for a wrong purpose... I haven't lost it in a gamble or a race and I am aware of my mistake.
"In this case, if you do not have support at home, support from wife, that support you can't find in anything."
Sridevi passed away on February 24, 2018, due to accidental drowning in a Dubai hotel.
