Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India]: While several star kids are stepping into Bollywood, Ajay Devgn and Kajol’s daughter, Nysa, currently has no interest in joining the film industry.
At the trailer launch of Kajol’s upcoming film ‘Maa’, held in Mumbai, Ajay Devgn was asked whether he considered casting Nysa in the mythological horror film. The actor responded candidly,
“At the moment she is not interested in this kind of work.”
Both Ajay and Kajol attended the event and engaged openly with the media.
Kajol reflected on the emotional depth of her character and the film’s theme of motherhood.
“I spoke about this during Salaam Venky as well… It’s any parent’s worst nightmare (to lose their child). I normally tend not to let my feelings affect my shot, but somewhere down the line, subconsciously, emotions come easier. Tears fall more easily. Because you feel so connected to it, and it’s so real,” she said.
Directed by Vishal Furia, known for the horror film Chhorii, ‘Maa’ is scheduled to hit theatres on June 27. The cast includes Indraneil Sengupta, Jitin Gulati, and Kherin Sharma alongside Kajol.
Addressing comparisons with the Chhorii franchise, director Vishal Furia clarified,
“The only similarity is that both are stories of mothers. But we’re talking about Maa Kali in this film, who is a much bigger entity. This world is much, much bigger. It’s a cinematic experience. You can’t watch it on OTT. You’ll have to come and watch it in theatres.”
