Maddock Films is all set to redefine the cinematic universe in India with its much-awaited horror-comedy films. Apart from continuing their existing franchises like Stree and Bhediya, they have announced new films like Thaama, Shakti Shalini, Chamunda, Pehla Mahayudh and Doosra Mahayudh. Recently, Abhishek Banerjee, who plays the character Jana who has appeared in all the films before, revealed that there could be something related to his appearance in the new films.
In a new interview with Bollywood Hungama, Abhishek Banerjee, who plays Jana, talked about Maddock Films recently announcing new films under its horror comedy universe. Speaking about the same, he said, “In Stree, Bhediya and Munjya, the audience has seen Jana, and about other projects, well, let’s say Jana is a favorite of bhootas (ghosts) and danavs (demons). If it is, then anything can happen.” (Go is a favorite of ghosts and demons, so anything can happen.)
Jana is an ordinary person who can attract evil spirits. The character first appeared in the film Stree starring Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor. Fans already love her character, and as India’s cinematic landscape evolves, Maddock’s slate is set to be a pioneer, with Jana emerging as a fan favourite.
In a recent interview with ANI, Amar Kaushik revealed that Abhishek Banerjee already wanted to cast him in Stree. However, the actor wanted to play the character of Bittu, played by Aparshakti Khurana, in the film. However, the director convinced him and Banerjee was happy with it.

He is popular for his roles in the Maddock supernatural universe films Stree, Bhediya and Stree 2 and as Hathoda Tyagi in the Amazon Prime Video series Paatal Lok.
