Bollywood superstar Kajol is set to mesmerize audiences with her most powerful role yet in the upcoming mythological horror-thriller Maa, releasing in theatres worldwide on 27 June 2025. Directed by Vishal Furia, known for Lapachhapi and Chhorii, the film promises a gripping story that blends myth, motherhood, and supernatural suspense.
A Mother’s Wrath Unleashed
The official trailer for Maa, recently released by Jio Studios, has already sparked buzz across social media. It portrays Kajol as a ferocious mother-warrior, battling dark supernatural forces to save her young daughter from a bloodthirsty Rakshasa (demon). The visuals combine modern horror elements with traditional Indian mythology, offering audiences a unique cinematic experience.
Kajol, in a recent interview, described Maa as “one of the strongest roles of my career.” She added that the film reflects “the raw, primal power of a mother’s love”, making it deeply relatable and emotionally charged.
Spiritual Journey and Cultural Roots
Ahead of the film’s release, Kajol visited the iconic Dakshineswar Kali Temple in Kolkata to seek blessings. Speaking to the media, she emphasized that Maa is not just a horror movie but also a celebration of feminine strength and spiritual resilience.
“I believe the story will resonate with every mother, every daughter, and anyone who understands the depths of love and sacrifice,” said Kajol.
Star-Studded Production
Maa is produced by Ajay Devgn, Jyoti Deshpande, and Jio Studios, and is considered a spiritual spinoff of last year’s hit Shaitaan. The film will release in four languages—Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Bengali—marking Kajol’s return to a pan-Indian release strategy.
Director Vishal Furia commented, “Working with Kajol has been a dream. She brings unparalleled intensity and emotion to the screen. Maa is not just a horror film, it’s an epic battle between light and darkness—within and without.”
Anticipation Building
The trailer has already crossed 10 million views within days of its launch, with fans praising Kajol’s commanding screen presence and the film’s spine-chilling atmosphere. Industry insiders are predicting Maa could become one of the biggest horror releases of 2025.
With power-packed performances, mythological depth, and intense mother-daughter emotions, Maa looks poised to deliver a cinematic experience that is both terrifying and deeply moving.
