Kajol who is currently in London has started the promotions of Helicopter Eela by launching the poster amidst media there. The actress is all set to return to the cinemas, which releases worldwide on 14th September.
Eela is the story of a single mother and an aspiring singer who gives up all her dreams to raise her only child. Her son, played by Riddhi Sen is like a typical teenager, doesn’t want his mother’s life to revolve around him. Being an overprotective mom, she decides to join her son’s college, which eventually suffers a backlash.
Talking about her role in the film, Kajol says:
“As a mother, I felt a real connection with Eela’s character. She loves her son unconditionally and has built her life around him. But as he grows up, she finds herself becoming more and more dispensable. She has also put her life and dreams on hold like so many mothers do. This is a life situation that so many women face once their kids grow up. And, one that I will inevitably face is, what do I do now? How do I hold on to my baby? In a way, Helicopter Eela is a coming of age film, more for Eela rather than it is for her son!”

Ajay Devgn who is the producer of this slice-of-life film says:
“I was drawn to the story of this loving but difficult relationship between a mother and son. The script told a beautiful story, of a journey that all parents face, but it is especially true and unique to mothers and their sons. The characters played by Kajol and Riddhi Sen are extremely strong and they will have an astonishing connect with the audience across the globe.”
