We Are Family is a 2010 Indian Hindi-language family drama film directed by Siddharth P. Malhotra and produced by Hiroo Yash Johar and Karan Johar under Dharma Productions. It was co-produced and distributed by Sony Pictures Entertainment and UTV Motion Pictures. An official Indian adaptation of the 1998 American film Stepmom, the film stars Kajol, Kareena Kapoor, and Arjun Rampal in lead roles.

Production

Karan Johar acquired the official rights to adapt the American film Stepmom (1998) for Indian audiences, initially working under the title Love You Maa. Rather than purchasing the rights outright, Johar opted to co-produce the film with Sony Pictures, marking one of the first collaborations between a major Hollywood studio and an Indian production house.

Principal photography took place between November 2009 and April 2010 in Sydney, Australia, and Mumbai. Director Siddharth P. Malhotra later revealed that several scenes addressing racial discrimination in Australia were removed during editing to avoid appearing exploitative amid real-life incidents of violence against Indian students in the country.
