Maa Review: Kajol’s Mythological Drama Lacks Scares and Pacing
Maa movie review
Director: Vishal Furia
Cast: Kajol, Ronit Roy, Indranil Sengupta, and Kherin Sharma
Star Rating: ★★.5
Kajol's character, as her daughter is taken by a supernatural entity, states towards the end, "I can't sit here and wait for a miracle." Fair enough, since to be honest, we can't either. We've been waiting for two hours for any sign of horror in this horror-mythological picture. We could call the monster ourselves if something doesn't start to scare us soon.
The foundation
The film Maa, which is directed by Vishal Furia of Chhorii fame, opens with the sacrifice of a young girl in Chandrapur, and then it immediately jumps 40 years ahead. Kajol plays Ambika, who is content in her life with her husband, Shubhankar (Indraneil Sengupta), and their daughter, Shweta (Kherin Sharma). For reasons unknown, they are reluctant to go to Chandrapur, the village where Shubhankar's family originated. However, his father's passing compels him to travel there, and he passes away. At the urging of Joydev (Ronit Roy), who is trying to convince them to sell their family home, Ambika and Shweta visit after three months in mourning. However, Ambika is not prepared for what is ahead.
