Filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh has responded to a troll who questioned his "aukat" to release his upcoming film Jaane Jaan in theatres. The film, which stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, will instead premiere on Netflix on September 21.
The troll commented on Ghosh's tweet about the film's trailer, saying that he did not have the "calibre" to release it in theatres and that everything is a hit on OTT. Ghosh replied to the troll, thanking him for relieving him of all his tensions and saying that he would be "forever grateful".

Jaane Jaan is based on the Japanese novel The Devotion of Suspect X. It is a murder mystery and has Jaideep Ahlawat in the role of Kareena's neighbour and Vijay Varma as a cop investigating the murder case with Kareena as one of the suspects.
Kareena said that one of the reasons she boarded the Netflix film was that she didn't want to be left behind in 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 at the trailer launch.
The film is slated to release on September 21.
