00:59for Chori and Chori 2, this supernatural thriller is all set to release in theatres on 27th

01:11The other person is dying.
01:15The first time is, right?
01:18The next time is, right?
01:20The next time is, right?
01:21We will go.
01:30Ma, how much time is it?
01:33It's just a little bit more than that.
01:39Sata, this is a new place.
01:42And you don't know where to tell your mother.
01:44Everyone says that you live in that tree.
01:47Who?
01:48Two two.
01:49Rakshas.
01:58This is not the first person.
01:59It's a disaster.
02:00How are you doing?
02:01The Holocaust is brought up by the Three-Times.
02:04And people come out in three months.
02:06Don't shoot me!
02:08No!
02:09Where are you?
02:10What did you do?!
02:12The dark forest has become red mountains.
02:15Do you have children under Marte?
02:18It's still a fucking jungle.
02:20Oh my god!
02:21I'm not sure there's no choice here.
02:24There's no choice here.
02:25I hate this.
02:26We have no choice here.
02:27No one knows why we can't do it.
02:28There is no one who will kill my daughter to kill my daughter.
02:33You can't kill me.
03:03Backed by Ajay Devgan and Jyoti Deshpande, the film promises to be a terrifying yet emotional
03:16journey of a mother who would go to hell and back to save her daughter.
03:21Set in the fictional village of Chandrabur, Ma follows a mother-daughter duo played by
03:26Kajol and child actor Kherin Sharma.
03:30The trailer begins with them driving through a foggy forest when a corpse suddenly crashes
03:35into their windshield, a shocking start that immediately sets the tone.
03:40The two take refuge in a mysterious old bungalow, but things spiral into horror as they discover
03:46the village is cursed.
03:48Kajol's daughter is warned not to wander off, but curiosity leads her to a haunted tree where
03:54malevolent spirits are said to reside.
03:58As other village girls start disappearing, suspicion turns toward the newcomers.
04:03Ronit Roy appears as a local official revealing that several girls have gone missing over the
04:09past four months and the forest holds the dark answers.
04:14The film is deeply rooted in Indian mythology, featuring a demon or that they believe to feed
04:19on fear and sacrifice.
04:22Kajol's character eventually transforms into a fierce, Kali-like figure, protector and destroyer
04:28to break the curse.
04:30Doito?
04:31You want to take over?
04:32You want to say something?
04:33Maa is here.
04:34You are here.
04:35Shaitan Sahib.
04:36Maa.
04:37Maa.
04:38Maa.
04:39Maa.
04:40Maa.
04:41Maa.
04:42Maa.
04:43Maa.
04:44Maa.
04:45Maa?
04:46Maa.
04:47Maa.
04:48Ma.
04:49Maa.
04:50Maa.
04:51Maa.
04:52It's the world of shaitan, of course.
05:06But here is the Maa's entry.
05:07And there was so much time waiting for everyone to see this avatar.
05:11What do you have to say?
05:12You know, working in this genre,
05:15mytho horror has been explored on this level for the first time.
05:18Of course, Jio Studios and Devgana Films, Dwarah.
05:20What do you have to say on that?
05:21I think, first of all, let me just say that
05:25it's the first time a mythological horror has been attempted.
05:29And I am very, very, very happy to be a part of it.
05:32I'm very happy to have, you know,
05:35all of this wonderful backing behind me.
05:37With gripping visuals, twisted tree limbs attacking her,
05:41and a haunting score by Harsh Upadhyay, Rocky Khanna, and Shiv Malhotra,
05:46the trailer is backed with fear, emotion, and high drama.
05:50Interestingly, Maa is reportedly connected to Ajay Devgana's 2024 horror hit Shaitan,
05:57which starred our Madhavan as an evil sorcerer who manipulated and abducted young girls.
06:03Sources say Madhavan might even have a cameo in Maa,
06:07possibly tying the two films into a shared horror universe.
06:10The screenplay by Savim Quadras and editing by Sandeep Francis Sharpandha Tension.
06:17The cast also features Indranir Sengupta, Jitin Gulati, Gopal Singh, Surajya Sikha Das,
06:24Yanya Bharadwaj, and Rupakatha Chakrabarti, adding depth to the unfolding mystery.
06:31At the trailer launch event, Kajo stunned in a black saree with a golden embroidered blouse,
06:37capturing attention with her strong yet elegant presence,
06:41echoing the theme of the film.
06:42Oh, thanks.
06:45The three?
06:47Give me my hand.
06:48All right.
06:49We're done.
06:52To� folding.
07:02Oh.
07:04Yeah.
07:04But the real show stealer was her son, Yug, who surprised her on stage in a heartfelt
07:26moment that fans can't stop talking about.
07:29Ajay Devgan, the co-producer and proud husband, shared a laugh saying any husband would cast
07:35his wife in a horror role.
07:38Another big highlight?
07:41Filmmaker Karan Johar gave the trailer a big thumbs up on Instagram, calling it a super
07:46hit and praising Kajol for delivering the best role of her life.
07:51With themes of maternal instinct, mythological terror and female strength, Ma positions Kajol
07:57as a modern day Kali, a mother who transforms into a warrior when evil threatens her child.
08:04As she declares in the trailer's chilling final line,
08:07Jab tak teri maa teray saath hai, tera koi kuch nahi bigaar sakta.
08:13As long as your mother is with you, no one can harm you.
08:17This film marks a powerful return to the horror genre with a mythic twist and possibly the birth
08:23of India's very own horror cinematic universe, something fans have been waiting for.
08:29So, what did you think of Kajol's fierce transformation in Ma?
08:34Could this be her most powerful role yet?
08:38And how excited are you for the potential shaitan universe crossover?
