Netflix has released a new trailer for the film “Jaane Jaan,” featuring Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor Khan.
Netflix film ‘Jaane Jaan’: Sujoy Ghosh created the movie, which is based on the best-selling 2005 novel “The Devotion of Suspect X” by Japanese author Higashino Keigo.
Kapoor Khan leads the ensemble cast, which includes Jaideep Ahlawat and Vijay Varma.
The story revolves around a single mother, her daughter, committing a crime, and a neighbour helping them cover it up while the police are looking into it.
According to a quotation from Kareena about her role in the movie, “This is the first time audiences will see me in a thriller, playing something gritty like this,” according to Variety.
“The moment I first heard about ‘Jaane Jaan,’ I knew I had to say yes. The cast of this movie is its USP, and I had a great experience working with Jaideep and Vijay, as I’ve always told Sujoy.
Japan produced “Suspect X” (2008), Korea created “Perfect Number” (2012), and China released “The Devotion of Suspect X” (2017) as adaptations of the book. Variety continued, “A Hollywood version is reportedly in development.”
“Jaane Jaan” is based on the book that has been my longtime love of life, the director Ghosh said in regards to the adaptation. I’ve wanted to turn ‘Devotion of Suspect X’ into a movie ever since I first read it,” said Netflix.
Further, He continued, “The film, set in Kalimpong, features a love story, a criminal investigation, a developing attraction, cunning schemers, and the willingness to do anything for love.” Variety quoted his statement as follows: “Kareena, Jaideep, and Vijay, all play parts so distinct from what they have been seen in before, make up my dream cast.”
