New Delhi: Kareena Kapoor will make her OTT debut with the suspense thriller 'Jaane Jaan', directed by Sujoy Ghosh. The makers of the film, which stars Jaideep Ahlawat and Vijay Varma, just released a fascinating trailer. There is already a new promo for the Netflix movie, which serves as Kareena's OTT debut.
The captivating story takes place in Kalimpong. Kareena portrays the mysterious Maya D'Souza, while Jaideep and Vijay Varma take on the roles of Naren, a neighbour, and Karan, a police officer, respectively. A glimpse inside Maya D'Souza's world and how she risks everything to protect her kid from what seems to be a murder probe was shown in the promo.
On Tuesday, Sujoy Ghosh tweeted about the new promo.
“What an honour it was to work with Kareena Kapoor Khan – another level of dedication… Here she is as Maya D'Souza in… Jaane Jaan. 21 September on @NetflixIndia, dekhna zaroor,” he wrote.
Speaking on her OTT debut, the actor revealed that one of the main reasons she signed up for the Netflix film was so she wouldn't be left out of exploring the streaming space.
"I am more nervous than I was 20 years ago for the first time. Watching the promo so closely on TV screens, people would be watching me so closely on their phones. We have all worked very hard. Every actor says that but Sujoy has made a fantastic film. We have been trying to work together for over a decade,” she said.
Before her movie's title was revealed last month, Netflix made a video showing Kareena thrilled about her streaming debut. The thriller, which Sujoy Ghosh wrote and directed for Netflix, will be released on the platform on September 21. It is based on the best-selling Japanese novelist Keigo Higashino's 2005 book 'The Devotion of Suspect X'.
In collaboration with Kross Pictures and Balaji Motion Pictures, 'Jaane Jaan' is produced under the names 12th Street Entertainment and Northern Lights Films.
