Maa (2025) marks the powerful comeback of actress Kajol in the role of a fierce mother, ready to confront dark supernatural forces to protect her daughter. Directed by Vishal Furia and produced by Ajay Devgn, the film promises a mystical horror experience deeply rooted in Indian mythology.
The story begins as Kajol and her daughter Shweta arrive in the village of Chandanpur, a place haunted by an ancient curse. When Shweta mysteriously disappears, Kajol is forced to transform into the embodiment of Goddess Kali to battle the “Rakshas” — a malevolent force threatening her daughter’s soul. The film delves deep into the theme of maternal love, blending horror and mythology to create an emotional and suspenseful journey.
The trailer has received strong reactions from audiences and critics alike. Koimoi described it as “chilling from the very first second,” with haunting sound design and atmospheric visuals that immediately draw viewers in. Kajol delivers a powerful performance as a mother willing to sacrifice everything for her child.
As an extension of the Shaitaan cinematic universe, Maa is not just a conventional horror film — it’s a culturally rich, emotionally charged story that reflects India’s deep-rooted spiritual traditions. Featuring a strong ensemble cast including Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta, Jitin Gulati, and Kherin Sharma, the film is poised to offer a truly unique cinematic experience.
