Maa Day 2 Box Office: Kajol starrer shows healthy 30 percent growth to net Rs 6.25 crore on Saturday; Will it emerge a success?
Maa directed by Vishal Furia and starring Kajol, Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta and a bunch of other actors, grew by around 30 percent on day 2, to net Rs 6 - 6.50 crore net. The growth is healthy and while there was scope for better growth, this is pretty acceptable since the movie, in the first place, was not a non-starter. Also, the movie was slightly aided by discount offers on the first day, so the 30 percent growth on Saturday starts looking a lot better. Maa Nets Rs 6.25 Crore On Day 2; 2 Day Total Stands At Rs 11 Crore Clubbed with Rs 4.75 crore net on day 1, the two day total of Maa stands at Rs 11 crore. The Sunday number should be in the Rs 6.75 - 7 crore vicinity, for a Rs 17.75 - 18 crore net India weekend. These collections should be seen very positively since there are coming amidst stiff competition from F1 and Sitaare Zameen Par. Despite being the lowest grosser of the three this weekend, it is the best performer in mass circuits. The presence of Kajol, along with the lucrativeness of the supernatural genre and the connection to Shaitaan, seems to have served the film well. The Day Wise Net India Collections Of Maa In India Are As Under Maa Faces Stiff Competition At The Box Office Next Week After the weekend, it will be very crucial for Maa to hold strong. This is because the film based on Kali Maa faces two new rivals next week in the form of Metro... In Dino and Jurassic World Rebirth. The new rivals, along with the strong holdovers are surely going to try and squeeze it, and the only way to avoid it is to keep getting audiences. The support from the mass belts will be more crucial because the Kajol movie is more preferred than its competing releases this week, making it have the upper hand when it comes to showcasing next week.

Kajol embraces divine feminine power in ‘Maa'
Bollywood star Kajol is drawing attention for her spiritually intense and emotionally charged portrayal of divine feminine energy in her latest film Maa, a mythological horror that hit theatres on June 27. Speaking about her experience, the 50-year-old actress shared how filming the powerful 'Kali Shakti' song sequence left her in awe of the fierce goddess energy she was channeling. 'It was such a visceral experience — hypnotic, really,' Kajol recalled. 'Everyone on set could feel it. You go into a daze listening to that song. It has this incredible power.' One of the most transformative moments for Kajol came during the unveiling of the Goddess Kali statue. Covered during the initial days of shooting, the statue was revealed during a key scene. Kajol remembers feeling awestruck when she first laid eyes on it. 'I literally gasped. She was so powerful, so beautiful. That shot, when I remove the cloth from Kali Maa, is one of the most impactful visuals of the film,' she said. Expressing heartfelt gratitude, Kajol shared how working in front of the idol each day gave her a deep sense of connection. 'I felt blessed — like I was performing in front of the goddess herself. It was truly unique,' she added. Maa explores a mother-daughter duo caught in a demonic curse in the husband's ancestral town. Also starring Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta, and Kherin Sharma, the film serves as a spiritual spinoff to 2024's Shaitaan. Through her role, Kajol embodies strength, divinity, and the essence of womanhood, reminding audiences of the power and grace rooted in the feminine spirit.
