Khushi Kapoor, Karishma Tanna join forces for ‘Mom 2’; makers say their chemistry ‘feels just right’
Khushi Kapoor and Karishma Tanna will star in ‘Mom 2’, produced by Boney Kapoor. Inspired by Sridevi’s 2017 film ‘Mother’, the film tells a new story of strength and justice, with the makers praising the duo’s chemistry.
Bollywood is all set to revisit one of its most emotional dramas as Khushi Kapoor and Karishma Tanna join hands for ‘Mom 2’, the sequel to the 2017 hit film ‘Mom’ starring Sridevi. The film will be produced by Boney Kapoor, who brings back the strong spirit of the original story and gives it a fresh, modern twist.
A new story, not a direct sequel
According to the producers, Mother 2 will not continue where the original left off; instead, it will tell a new story inspired by the same feelings of love, justice, and power. The film will focus on two strong women played by Khushi and Karishma, whose lives are heartwarming yet intensely intertwined.
The makers explained that Khushi and Karishma’s on-screen chemistry ‘feels just right’ and their performances perfectly balance innocence and maturity. While Khushi brings freshness and youthful energy to her role, Karishma brings emotional weight and depth with her experience. Together, they are expected to form a strong bond that activates the emotional foundation of the film.
Behind the scenes and rising expectations
Mom 2 is directed by Girish Kohli, who co-wrote the original film, and ensures that the essence of Sridevi’s Mother remains alive while exploring a new narrative. Reports suggest that the film has already gone on floors, shooting is underway and official announcements regarding the rest of the cast are expected soon.
Boney Kapoor, who made the first film a tribute to his late wife Sridevi, reportedly felt emotionally invested in reviving the project. The team aims to present Mother 2 as a standalone story that honors the legacy of the original and appeals to a new generation of viewers.
While fans are still appreciating Sridevi’s powerful performance in Mom (2017), expectations are naturally high. As Khushi Kapoor takes on a project so closely tied to her mother’s cinematic legacy, audiences can’t wait to see how she and Karishma Tanna breathe new life into this emotional, modern-day story of strength, love and redemption.
