Maa, starring Kajol in the lead role, along with Ronit Roy, Kerin Sharma, Indranil Sengupta, and others, is performing decently at the box office. The movie, directed by Vishal Furia, wrapped its opening week on a reasonable note. However, it will have to show better trends on the second weekend.
Maa collects Rs 26.25 crore in the opening week, needs better hold in the second weekend
Released on June 27, alongside Brad Pitt's F1 (Formula One) and holdover release Sitaare Zameen Par, the supernatural drama took an encouraging start. After taking an opening of Rs 4.75 crore, it smashed Rs 6 crore on its second day and Rs 6.75 crore on its first Sunday, wrapping the first weekend at Rs 17.50 crore net in India.
It further witnessed a significant drop and could add Rs 2.50 crore on its first Monday, followed by Rs 3 crore on Tuesday, that too, because of subsidized ticket prices. It saw another drop on Wednesday and Thursday, when the ticket fares went back to normalcy and added Rs 1.75 crore and Rs 1.50 crore to the tally, respectively.
Maa ended its first week at an average figure of Rs 26.25 crore net at the box office. Though it is a reasonable figure for a Kajol starer, a better outcome was expected because of its genre and connection to the Shaitaan universe.
Maa to face Metro...In Dino and Jurassic World Rebirth in week 2
The Kajol starrer should aim for a better hold in its second weekend. However, it will have to face new releases, Metro...In Dino and Jurassic World Rebirth this weekend, which are expected to severely dent its business.
Bankrolled by Devgn Films, the supernatural drama is expected to close its entire theatrical run with a net collection of around Rs 37 crore at the Indian box office.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Now, the actress has reacted to the comparison between Irrfan and Pankaj and shared that the latter has done 'more than justice' to the character of Monty. 'Life In A Metro was 17–18 years ago. That time, Irrfan and I played Shruti and Monty. They were a much younger couple with younger concerns. Now, Pankaj and my characters are different. They are a much older, married couple with kids. They have jobs, EMIs, responsibilities,' Konkona told Livemint. 'They have a good marriage, but now it's becoming a little boring. I feel like it's with so many people… when you are in a marriage, you hope it's forever only. It's a long-term commitment. The nature of the relationship changes. Anurag has tried to explore that because love is not only when a girl and a boy meet. It doesn't end after that. We have seen love as such a vast, complex emotion throughout our lives, in all different forms. Pankaj and I are tackling it at a different juncture,' she added. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Speaking about the comparison of her chemistry with Irrfan and now Tripathi, she shared, 'I don't want to think about it, honestly. Not in my hands at all. For me, there is no such thing because it's a very fresh thing. It's very new. If they were playing the same character or I were playing the same character, then yes… but there are so many new things this time.'
