Maa 1st day box office collection: Kajol’s much-anticipated folk horror thriller Maa hit theatres yesterday and registered a decent opening at the box office.
Directed by Vishal Furia, Maa marks Kajol’s return to the big screen in a genre she hasn’t explored before—horror mixed with mythology and psychological drama. With a powerful trailer and strong pre-release buzz, expectations were high for the film, especially among urban audiences.
Produced by Jio Studios, Devgn Films and Panorama Studios, the film earned Rs 4.93 crore nett on its first day, falling short of early trade expectations but leaving room for a strong weekend push.
If it crosses Rs 15 crore by Sunday night, it could stabilize and see a steady run over the next two weeks, especially if it capitalizes on the lack of major Hindi releases next Friday.
Maa stars Kajol in the title role, alongside Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta, and Kherin Sharma. It is a spinoff to the 2024 film Shaitaan, being set in the same universe.
