Jyotika congratulates team ‘Shaitan’, calls the film a journey

On Wednesday, actor Jyotika extended congratulations to the ‘Shaitan’ team for the movie’s success. She posted a reel on Instagram showcasing behind-the-scenes footage from the film’s shooting.

Along with the post, “Some films r just destinations! But Shaitan was a journey….. A journey of happiness, memories, creativity, talent and friends for a lifetime. Thank u Devgn Films, Panorama Studios and Jio Studios for making me part of this fulfilling journey. Congrats to the whole team.”

In ‘Shaitaan’, Jyotika portrayed the character of Janki Bodiwala’s mother, sharing the screen with Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan.

Talking about playing a mother on screen and being one in real life, Jyotika said, “There are a lot of sequences in the film that ignite motherhood, and I don’t know if I want to really reveal them, but one of them was a very important reason why I said yes to this film also. I think throughout, it was a constant that the film reminded you of how responsible one has to be with a teenage daughter and what role a mother and father play in the protective journey of their kids.”

She added, “I think, as a mother, from the beginning to the end, this film has that emotion and responsibility throughout. That feeling of just protecting your child continuously. I think every parent watching the film will be under that light.”

‘Shaitaan’ is the Bollywood remake of the well-received Gujarati film ‘Vash’. Presented by Jio Studios, Ajay Devgn Films, and Panorama Studios International, it is produced by Devgn, Jyoti Deshpande, Kumar Mangat Pathak, and Abhishek Pathak. The music for the film is composed by Devi Sri Prasad.

‘Shaitaan’  released in theatres on March 8.
