MUMBAI: What do you get when a dead grandfather, divine powers, and a modern love story walk into a Gujarati household? Fakt Purusho Maate—a high-spirited, genre-blending blockbuster that’s ready to stream its madness on Jojo from 25 July.
Fresh off a box office run that mixed laughter with generational chaos, the Jay Bodas and Parth Trivedi-directed film takes a wild swing at patriarchy, family feuds, and ghostly guidance. The plot follows Purshottam (Darshan Jariwala), an old-school family man who returns from the afterlife during the 16-day Shraadh period—with a divine mission to sabotage his grandson’s romance with an independent woman.
Esha Kansara added, “Radhika is a very special character to me. She’s calm, clear, and knows how to stand up for herself without being harsh. I think a lot of young women will relate to her. This film talks about equality and family in such a warm and light-hearted way. It doesn’t preach—it just shows you a different way of thinking. I’m really happy it’s streaming on Jojo now because I feel it will connect with so many people. It’s the kind of story that starts a conversation at home without feeling heavy. And those are the stories that stay with you.”
Jojo founder & CEO Dhruvin Shah said, “At Jojo, our vision has always been to bring stories that truly resonate with audiences and spark meaningful conversations. Fakt Purusho Maate is one of our most significant releases to date, not just because of its star cast or box office success, but because of the way it blends sharp entertainment with a powerful social message. It reflects the kind of storytelling we believe in—engaging, thought-provoking, culturally rooted, and universally relatable. We are proud to be the platform that brings such meaningful narratives to life and helps them connect with viewers across generations.”
The film also stars Mitra Gadhvi and Aarti Vyas Patel, with Kedar-Bhargav’s music giving it a pulse that swings between nostalgia and now.
So whether you’re tuning in for some Big B magic, family banter, or just to settle the pati-vs-patraani debate, Fakt Purusho Maate is here to charm your screens—and maybe shake up a few drawing-room discussions along the way.
