New Delhi: 'Jaane Jaan' starring Kareena Kapoor, Vijay Varma, and Jaideep Ahlawat will be releasing on Netflix on Thursday, Kareena' birthday ( September 21). Recently, director Sujoy Ghosh shared some intriguing insights about the actors in his film.In an interaction with Bollywood Hungama, Sujoy Ghosh said that he was worried about Kareena's chemistry with Vijay and Jaideep.
"It did worry me in the beginning but Kareena was so enthused to work with Vijay and Jaideep. And that helps you because when you see her getting excited to work with these guys without you asking her anything. But to her credit, she was much more front footed in this project.” Sujoy Ghosh said.
On casting Kareena as Maya, Sujoy shared, "I needed somebody at that age and to be fearless and Kareena is fearless. When she was playing Maya, she couldn’t give a s**t about Kareena Kapoor. She knew Maya was a single mom, who works and takes care of her child. Her life is all about work. This woman hardly has any time for herself. And Kareena didn’t want a costume during the whole film because she understood that this girl, she doesn’t get time. One jacket is enough for her. Kareena completely embraced it.”
Sujoy further shared that she was genuinely excited about the project and identified layers he missed in the script initially.
Earlier, Sujoy had thrown light into the film. Talking about 'Jaane Jaan', he shared, "Jaane Jaan is based on the book which has been the love of my life for a long time. From the day I read ‘Devotion of Suspect X,’ I wanted to adapt it into a film. It was the most incredible love story I had ever read, and today, thanks to Kareena, Jaideep, and Vijay, that story is alive on screen. We all worked very hard to tell this story, and hopefully, the audience will love it as much as we do.”
