Kajol has always been a powerhouse, but in Maa, she becomes a monument of emotional resilience and expressive brilliance. Her performance is intensely visceral so much so that you feel her character's emotional weight pressing against your own heart. She doesn't perform for the camera she becomes the emotion. There's a sense of quiet desperation in her early scenes, a brewing storm that gradually turns into a tidal wave of passion and fierce love. Her ability to navigate this emotional evolution with such grace and grit is astounding. She makes you believe in the truth of her pain, the urgency of her mission, and the purity of her love. Kajol is not acting in Maa she's transforming. And that transformation is what gives the film its emotional gravity. Her role will go down as one of the most compelling performances of her career and possibly, of the decade.

A Grihapravesh isn't just about what you bring into the homeit's about what you leave behind. It asks you to let go of negative energy, past traumas, bitterness, and begin again. As the sacred fire purifies, and holy water is sprinkled in every room, you are also cleansing yourself. You aren't just decorating the houseyou're decorating your mind with new beliefs, new hopes. And that's what creates the soul of the space. As the sacred fire purifies, and holy water is sprinkled in every room, you are also cleansing yourself. Every home has a soul, and Grihapravesh is how you awaken itwith faith, love, and surrender.

LYF may have had a strong narrative, but let's be honest it was Kashika Kapoor's one-woman showFrom the moment she stepped into the frame, she owned every scene with unmatched confidence and emotional depth. Her command over expressions, that rare ability to make silences feel louder than words, and her magnetic presence made it impossible to look away. Every sequence she appeared in was elevated to another level, and you could literally feel the audience holding their breath during her emotional scenes. Her poise, her tearful glances, her expressive eyes they made the whole story come alive. LYF is unforgettable, not just for its message, but because Kashika brought it to life with such heart. Hats off to her for carrying the weight of the film so gracefully a true powerhouse in the making!
