Helmed by Ashima Chibber, Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway is based on a true story of an Indian mother whose life turns upside down when her children are taken away by the Norwegian foster care system because of cultural differences. The movie documents the challenges she faced to win her children's custody.
Film critic Saibal Chatterjee in his review for NDTV gave 1.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "Rani Mukerji, a performer of proven ability, is let down by the writing. She struggles to hit the right notes. She shifts back and forth between the rattled and the raucous. As a result, the essence of the character never quite comes through."
Apart from Rani Mukerji, Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway also starred Anirban Bhattacharya, Jim Sarbh and Neena Gupta in pivotal roles. The movie clashed with Nandita Das' Zwigato, starring Kapil Sharma, at the box office. On the second day, the comedian's film earned Rs 62 lakh, taking the total to Rs 1.05 crore.
