REVEALED: Khushi Kapoor-Karishma Tanna starrer Mom 2 goes on floors; directed by Girish Kohli of Crazxy fame

Earlier this year, in March 2025, at the 25th IIFA Awards 2025 held in Jaipur, Boney Kapoor confirmed that he’s making a film with Khushi Kapoor and that it could be a sequel to Mom (2017), starring his wife and Khushi’s mother, the late Sridevi. It has now come to light that the film is indeed titled Mom 2. Yesterday, pictures from the sets surfaced on the internet. Bollywood Hungama has now learned some interesting stuff about the film. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Mom 2 went on floors just after Diwali, on October 26, in Mumbai. Nearly 10-11 days of the shoot have been completed and it is progressing well.

Like that film, it plays with recent genre trends – a remote, pandemic-suited location and the corrosive effect of mental illness – as well as the use of a life-saving rope tied to the home for those who need to leave. And like that film, it’s also a bit of a mess.

Originally titled Dust, originally set to star Claire Foy and originally intended for a theatrical release, the film arrives at the beginning of Hulu’s month of genre fare, dubbed Huluween. It’s far classier than that categorisation would suggest (especially when compared with films like cheapo evil pumpkin horror Carved), a handsomely made 1930s-set thriller that, unlike most streaming offerings today, also looks like it could stretch to a cinema screen. Added class also comes from Paulson, one of the most reliable small-screen and stage actors we have, who hasn’t really had enough big-screen chances at least not as lead. While Hold Your Breath isn’t quite able to keep up with her, it’s at least a deserving and all-consuming showcase, the actor exhaustively giving it her all.
