Bollywood producer Boney Kapoor has officially confirmed the sequel to Mom, the 2017 thriller that starred the legendary actress Sridevi alongside Pakistani actress Sajal Ali. The film, which was Sridevi’s last before her tragic passing, received immense praise for its gripping storyline and powerful performances. Now, discussions about Mom 2 are creating a buzz in the entertainment industry, with speculations about whether Sajal Ali will return to reprise her role.
During the IIFA 2025 Silver Jubilee celebration, Boney Kapoor spoke to the media and revealed his plans for Mom 2. He hinted that his younger daughter, Khushi Kapoor, might be a part of the sequel. “I have seen all of Khushi’s films—The Archies, Loyaapa, and Nadaanian. After No Entry, I am planning a film with her, and this could be Mom 2,” Boney Kapoor stated. His comments have sparked curiosity about the storyline of the sequel and whether it will connect to the original film’s emotional depth.
One of the biggest questions surrounding Mom 2 is whether Sajal Ali will return. In the original film, she played Arya, Sridevi’s stepdaughter, whose tragic fate becomes the central conflict of the story. Sajal’s outstanding performance was widely praised, and her emotional chemistry with Sridevi was one of the film’s highlights. However, as of now, no official confirmation has been made about her participation in the sequel. Fans are eagerly waiting for an update, hoping that she will be included in the project to continue the legacy of the film.
The first Mom was a critical and commercial success, winning awards and touching hearts across borders. It was a rare Bollywood film that featured a Pakistani actress in a significant role, strengthening cultural ties through cinema. If Sajal Ali does return for the sequel, it will be a major moment for her career and for fans who loved her in the original. Until an official announcement is made, audiences can only speculate and anticipate what Mom 2 will bring to the big screen.
