As Jaya walked down the stairs with Rono's son Samrat Mukherjee, the paparazzi gathered around her. She seemingly got irritated and then asked Samrat in Bengali, "Eder kano daako (Why do you ask them to come)?" He replied, "Aami daakini (I didn't call them)."
In another video, Jaya and Shweta waited for their car. As Jaya was about to leave, she told the paparazzi, "Chaliye aap log bhi saath mein. Aajaiyye (Come with us. Do come)." She then murmured, "Bakwas sab, gande gande se sab (Nonsense)."

This isn't the first time that Jaya has schooled the paparazzi. She has on several occasions seen scolding them. In 2023, Jaya attended Hema Malini birthday party. As photographers kept telling her where to look, she had said, 'Avi aap log itna direction mat dijiye (now don't give me so much direction for photos).' During the premiere of The Archies, Jaya had asked the paparazzi not to shout as she posed with Tina Ambani.
Jaya was last seen in the role of a powerful family matriarch in Karan Johar's Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, starring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh. It also featured Dharmendra and Shabana Azmi.
Rono was known for his films such as Haiwan (1977) and Tu Hi Meri Zindagi (1965). He died last week in Mumbai due to cardiac arrest. Rono was the uncle of Kajol, Rani Mukerji, Ayan Mukerji, Tanishaa Mukerji and the father of Sharbani, Siddharth, and Samrat Mukherjee. Rono was the eldest of the Mukherjee brothers and the President of North Bombay Durga Puja.

Maa Box Office Collection Day 1: Kajol's Horror film Opens With Rs 4 Crore
Last Updated: Kajol returns to the big screen with Maa, a mythological horror thriller directed by Vishal Furia. The film opened with Rs 4.15 crore on its first day. After a three-year break from the big screen, Kajol returned with Maa, a mythological horror thriller directed by Vishal Furia. The Day 1 numbers are finally in. According to early estimates by Sacnilk, Maa opened with a respectable Rs 4 crore on its first day. Not bad for a genre that's still pretty niche in Bollywood. As per early estimates, Maa earned Rs 4.15 crore on its opening day. The report also highlights that the film recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 16.49 per cent on Friday. Morning shows started slow with just 8.23 per cent occupancy, but numbers picked up by the afternoon, reaching 20.08 per cent. The evening shows saw a further boost, clocking in at 21.16 per cent. A part of the review of Maa by News18 read, 'The concept and story have substance, but the film lacked largely because of its style of storytelling. Besides, the film also has a lot of stereotypes that could have been done without. Besides the exaggeration that the palace had a almost 30-feet tall Kali maa's stone carved statue, the way people from Chandrapur talk in the film, everything seems to be a cliche that all the Bengalis would be running away from. It only gets disappointing to see Ronit Roy, who plays a vital part in the film, deliver all his Hindi dialogues with such a heavy Bengali accent. A lot would argue that it is not how people from Bengal speak when they talk in Hindi." In Maa, a mythological horror thriller, Kajol takes on the powerful role of Ambika, a fearless mother who will stop at nothing to protect her daughter from dark, supernatural forces. The film blends myth and mystery, marking Kajol's first foray into the horror genre. Alongside her, the cast includes Indraneil Sengupta, Jitin Gulati, and Kherin Sharma. Directed by Vishal Furia, Maa is backed by producers Ajay Devgn and Jyoti Subbarayan. First Published: June 28, 2025, 11:20 IST
