ZEE5 Global unveils Maa Hai Na, a refreshing comedy cooking show that brings Gen Z lifestyles facetoface with the warmth, wisdom and traditions of a mother’s kitchen. Hosted by Shilpa Shetty Kundra, the show features six Gen Z celebrities and their mothers, coming together for a journey filled with cooking, connection, conversations and chaos.
Energised by Gen Z language, habits and opinions, and grounded in a mother’s emotional instincts and lived experience, Maa Hai Na explores what happens when two generations are forced to truly listen to each other—one recipe at a time.
Kaveri Das, Chief Channel Officer &TV and Business Head, Hindi ZEE5 said, “No matter how independent or fast-paced our lives become, there are certain relationships that continue to ground us, and the bond we share with our mothers is one of them. At Hindi ZEE5, we wanted to create a format that reflects this emotion through a lens that feels fresh, entertaining, and deeply relatable for younger audiences today. Maa Hai Na brings together the energy, humour, and everyday chaos of Gen Zs with the warmth, instincts, and life lessons that only a mother can bring. As we continue to experiment with newer non-fiction formats on the platform, the idea was to create a show that feels authentic to modern family dynamics while reminding audiences that no matter how much life changes, Maa Hai Na.”
Producers Neeti and Preeti from Lil Frodo Productions House said, “At Lil Frodo Productions, we are always looking to tell stories that feel deeply personal yet universally relatable. With Maa Hai Na, we wanted to go beyond a conventional cooking format and create something that captures the emotional fabric of Indian households. The kitchen is often where the most honest conversations happen, and this show uses that space to explore the evolving dynamic between Gen Z and their mothers. Working with Shilpa Shetty Kundra as the host brought the perfect balance of warmth, relatability, and energy to the format. We hope audiences see themselves and their own relationships reflected in these moments of chaos, humour, and connection.”
Heartwarming, funny and emotionally rich, Maa Hai Na is a reminder that no matter how confusing life or the kitchen gets, maa hamesha hoti hai.
