Kajol is busy with the promotions of her upcoming horror thriller, Maa, scheduled to hit the big screens on June 27. Directed by Vishal Furia, the film has been generating significant buzz online ever since the makers announced that it belongs to the Shaitaan universe. Ahead of its release, there were speculations that either Ajay Devgn or R Madhavan could have comeos in Kajol 's forthcoming film, but now, during an interview, the actress has finally reacted to these rumours.
Speaking to Pinkvilla, Kajol shut down all the reports and said, 'No, no. Kaash aapne ye chiz pehle suggest ki hoti. Humari shooting se pehle bata diya hota toh hum shayad shooting kar bhi lete (No, no. I wish you had suggested this earlier. We could have filmed it if you had informed me before our shoot)."
She added, 'Par, now it's too late. The film is about to be released. We would not be able to add that much now. I hope that you like the film a lot and hopefully, there will be a Maa 2."
Maa is backed by Ajay Devgn, Jyoti Deshpande and Kumar Mangat Pathak, with Jio Studios and Devgn Films presenting the project. The music of the film is composed by Harsh Upadhyay, Rocky Khanna and Shiv Malhotra.

EXCLUSIVE: Netflix to re-negotiate Rs 130 crore Thug Life OTT deal after Kamal Haasan starrer's BO failure
Thug Life starring Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan TR hit the big screens on June 5, 2025, but has failed to stand out at the box office. Now, the OTT giant Netflix is re-negotiating its post-theatrical streaming deal. In an exclusive report, we at Pinkvilla learned that Netflix is planning to negotiate a different deal for the movie's OTT release. The agreement is being reconsidered with a 20-25% drop from the previous quoted amount. Earlier, we had reported that the digital rights of the movie were sold to the OTT platform for a whopping Rs 130 crores. The huge number was quoted due to Haasan and Mani Ratnam reuniting after the iconic Nayakan, but it was met with negative reviews on release. Following the mixed reactions, the movie failed to attract audiences to the big screens, resulting in disappointing box office revenue. With Netflix re-negotiating the OTT deal, we'll have to wait and see where their conclusion will reach. There were also reports that the movie would be streamed after 4 weeks since theatrical release, as opposed to the earlier-mentioned eight weeks. Talking about the movie, Thug Life is a gangster actioner focusing on the story of a Rangaraaya Sakthivel, a crime boss based in New Delhi. Following a shootout, the man adopts a young boy named Amaran and raises him as his own. As his foster son grows up and becomes a formidable member of the mafia, the leadership dynamic changes. Now, with a dark animosity brewing between father and son, Sakthivel is dead set on revenge. Aside from the main cast, the movie features an ensemble cast that includes Trisha Krishnan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Abhirami, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nassar, Ali Fazal, and more in key roles. Moving ahead, Kamal Haasan is next set to appear in the tentatively titled KH237 with AnbArivu duo serving as the directors. On the other hand, STR is speculated to soon join hands with director Vetrimaaran for an action venture. He also has multiple films in the lineup.

Kesari Chapter 2 OTT Verdict: Twitter review of Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan's film with Rs 142 crore global box office run
Akshay Kumar's Kesari Chapter 2 is now streaming online, following its successful theatrical run. Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 is now available to stream on JioHotstar. Set against the backdrop of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, the movie revolves around an actual historical event. If you are planning to watch the film online, let's take a look at what netizens have to say about Kesari Chapter 2. Kesari Chapter 2 Twitter review: Netizens hail Akshay Kumar's performance Bankrolled by Dharma Productions, the movie is winning hearts on the streaming platform. The courtroom drama is driven by strong performances of Akshay Kumar and R Madhavan in an intense face-off. While a major section of the audience appreciated Akshay Kumar's versatility and performance, others regretted missing the opportunity to watch it in cinemas. Kesari Chapter 2 box office performance emerges as 55th successful venture for Akshay Kumar Released on April 18 in cinemas, Kesari Chapter 2 met with a strong and positive word-of-mouth during its theatrical release. It performed well in urban centers but couldn't gain much traction in B and C centers due to its content-heavy cinema. Opened with Rs 9 crore on Day 1, the historical courtroom drama went on to smash over Rs 90.25 crore net (Rs 108.50 crore gross) at the Indian box office in its entire theatrical run. The mid-size movie found some love overseas and raked in over Rs 34 crore, taking the final worldwide gross to Rs 142.50 crore. Also starring Ananya Panday, the movie emerged as the 55th successful venture for Akshay Kumar. Though it missed the clean hit verdict, it definitely brought some positivity for Akshay Kumar, as his last few releases were box office duds. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
