Kajol Shines in Maa Movie with ₹10 Cr Box Office

Kajol's latest film "Maa" has opened to mixed reviews, but the mythological horror movie has still managed to make a significant impact at the box office, earning ₹10.30 Cr India net in its first two days. The film, directed by Vishal Furia, features Kajol as a fierce and emotionally resilient mother fighting against demonic forces to save her daughter.

The film boasts a strong cast, including Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta, Kherin Sharma, and Jitin Gulati, and its visually ambitious storytelling leans heavily into folklore and faith. While the film's predictable arc and emotional flatness have held it back from delivering on its promise, Kajol's intense acting skills bring depth to her character, Ambika. The film's box office performance has been notable, with an overall 16.49% Hindi occupancy on its first day and a 22.36% Hindi occupancy on its second day.

The film's occupancy in main regions has varied, with Mumbai showing a 28.33% occupancy, NCR at 29.33%, and Pune at 22.67%. The film's performance in other regions, such as Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Kolkata, has also been significant, with occupancies ranging from 20% to 24%. The film's earnings on its second day were around ₹5.65 Cr India net, bringing its total box office collection to ₹10.30 Cr India net.

As the film continues to run in theaters, it remains to be seen how it will perform in the coming days. With its unique blend of mythology and horror, "Maa" has the potential to attract a wide range of audiences, and Kajol's performance is sure to be a major draw. The film's success will depend on its ability to sustain its box office momentum and appeal to viewers beyond its initial release.
