Madhuri Dixit reveals why she'd do fewer 'kaands' than Triptii Dimri, Dharna Durga
New Delhi, June 1
Bollywood star Madhuri Dixit may be part of the chaotic, dysfunctional family at the heart of "Maa Behen", but when it comes to causing trouble, she believes her co-stars Triptii Dimri and Dharna Durga would beat her at it.
During a fun interaction with IANS, Bollywood's very own twinkle toes shared why she would be involved in fewer "kaands" than Triptii and Dharna, while hinting at the chaos, conflicts and strong personalities that define the film's central trio.
When the trailer released, it mentioned "Ek maa", "Do behen" and "ek bhayankar kaand" in the film, which is set in Bhopal.
But what if the film were set in Delhi? Then who would do the most 'kaands,' considering the term is more commonly used colloquially in the National Capital?
Pat came the reply from Madhuri: "I think they (Triptii and Dharna) will have more kaands because they are from here. So I don't know much about Delhi. So she (Madhuri's character in the film) has less to do."
Premiering on June 4, "Maa Behen" revolves around is Rekha, a mother who's already juggling enough until life throws her the ultimate curveball, a dead body in her kitchen. With her two daughters, Jaya, the responsible one, and Sushma, the wild card, this trio must think fast, lie faster, and somehow keep their nosy neighbors from sniffing out the truth.
Triptii chimed in and said that it would be all three characters, she added: "All three of us have equally kaandi. Because all three of us are very strong characters. Whether it's the mother, whether it's the sister, or the older sister. It's a very dysfunctional family."
"They get thrown into a difficult situation. What happens after that? How do they tackle it? That's something that you'll see in this film. But I think to answer your question, yeah. There's no..."
The chaotic crime-comedy 'Maa Behen' also stars Ravi Kishan in pivotal roles. They are joined by Geetanjali Kulkarni, Arunoday Singh, and Shardul Bhardwaj. The film will release on June 4.

Finally a Bollywood film about real family dynamics—not that picture-perfect nonsense. Dysfunctional families are the reality for most of us! And Madhuri's humility is so refreshing, admitting she wouldn't be the 'kaandi' one. 👌
The story sounds intriguing—a dead body and a crazy family trying to hide it. Quite like 'Delhi Belly' vibes! But I hope the comedy doesn't get too forced. Let's see how Ravi Kishan fits into this madhouse.
Madhuri Dixit is a legend, but I wish she'd choose more substantial roles. This seems like a fun time-pass film, but nothing more. And honestly, using 'kaand' as a selling point feels a bit overhyped. 🤷♀️
Bhopal setting, Delhi 'kaand' reference—loving the regional touch! And Triptii and Dharna are both talented, but let's be real: Madhuri's screen presence is unmatched. Even if she does fewer 'kaands', she'll steal the show. 🔥
As someone who doesn't follow Bollywood much, this article caught my eye. A comedy about a dead body in the kitchen? That's darkly hilarious! Might give it a watch when it hits streaming. Seems like a fun ride.
