Mulan has been an inspiration and motivation for all the millennial kids out there especially for girls.Speaking personally I was much moved by the movie myself and I am quite excited to watch the live-action adaptation. The song Reflection hits deep down our hearts and makes us wonder what our inner strengths are capable of and we can accomplish everything only if we have the determination in our minds and hearts.The movie also motivates women to step up for themselves and their families.
