According to Sacnilk, Maa collected ₹4.65 crore on Day 1 and saw a modest rise with ₹5.4 crore on Saturday (Day 2), bringing its total domestic collection to ₹10.05 crore. The film maintained decent occupancy throughout Saturday, with evening shows reporting the highest at 30.26%, contributing significantly to the day’s total.
Mixed Reception, But Kajol Shines
While reviews have been mixed — praising Kajol’s performance and VFX but critiquing the lack of impact in horror and pacing — Maa still found steady audiences, especially in urban multiplexes.
Competing with ‘Kannappa’
Released alongside Vishnu Manchu’s mythological epic Kannappa, which had a stronger opening, Maa is holding its ground due to Kajol’s star power and emotional core, despite facing stiff competition at the box office.
About the Film
Produced by Ajay Devgn, Jyoti Deshpande, and Kumar Mangat Pathak, Maa features Kajol as a fearless mother who battles supernatural forces to save her daughter. The film also stars Ronit Roy, Indraneil Sengupta, and Kherin Sharma, and is set in the Shaitaan cinematic universe.
