Trailer of Irrfan Khan starrer Angrezi Medium is hilarious

In 2017, a film titled Hindi Medium had hit the screens. The movie starred Irrfan Khan and Saba Qamar in the lead roles and was a big hit at the box office. The film was about how parents struggle to get admission for their child in a good English medium school.

Now, after three years, the makers have come up with the sequel to the film titled Angrezi Medium. The trailer of the film has been released and Irrfan Khan took to Twitter to share the trailer with his fans. He tweeted, “Inside I am very emotional, outside I am very happy! Presenting the official trailer of #AngreziMedium: https://bit.ly/AngreziMediumTrailer In cinemas on 20th March 2020 #KareenKapoorKhan @radhikamadan0 #Deepakdobriyal #DineshVijan #HomiAdajania #DimpleKapadia @RanvirShorey.”


While the first instalment was about the schooling in India, the sequel talks about studies abroad. Irrfan Khan plays the role of a father to a grown-up girl and how he struggles to fulfil her wish to study in London.

The trailer as expected is damn funny. There are many moments that will make you laugh out loud. Irrfan Khan is excellent in the trailer and his dialogue delivery will surely make you laugh. Kareena Kapoor Khan has been given less scope in the trailer but she is good. Radhika Madan looks confident and Deepak Dobriyal is at his best.

Directed by Homi Adajania, Angrezi Medium is slated to release on 20th March 2020. The movie also stars Dimple Kapadia, Pankaj Tripathi, Ranvir Shorey, and Kiku Sharda.

Politics of grooming gangs

Sir Keir Starmer was never keen on an inquiry specifically on Pakistani grooming gangs. The prime minister wants to be protective of the wider Pakistani community in the UK. The last thing he wants is an Islamophobic report which states that for cultural and religious reasons, Muslim Pakistan men have been targeting vulnerable white children and young women. But this is precisely the conclusion that some of the survivors and other groups want.

The Labour leadership was already in trouble with some Pakistani voters who felt it was not sufficiently critical of Israel’s military approach in the Gaza war. Starmer would not want to alienate them further with a report that picks out only Pakistanis when it comes to sexual abuse. It would be preferable to have a report that acknowledges that while there has been an historic problem with Pakistani grooming gangs in places such as Rotherham and Rochdale, white men are involved, too, in bigger numbers across the UK as a whole.
