Netizen says Sujoy Ghosh doesn't have the calibre for theatre release, director takes it in stride

Mumbai: Sujoy Ghosh, renowned for directing films like Kahaani, is back with his latest thriller, Jaane Jaan, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead role.

This film marks Kareena's entry into the world of online streaming and also features Jaideep Ahlawat and Vijay Varma in pivotal roles.

After the trailer dropped, an X, formerly Twitter, user questioned Ghosh's calibre to release the film in theatres, to which the director responded smartly, expressing his gratitude.

Ghosh, using his X handle, shared the trailer of Jaane Jaan once more, writing, "Just realised so many of you have seen our trailer. So thank you... thank you... thank you. Eleven days to exam result (gulp!) but dekhna zaroor on 21st (11 days to exam result but watch it for sure on 21st)," accompanied by smiley emojis.

In response to his tweet, a user commented, "Kaheka exam, theatre mai release karne ka aukat to hai nehi ott mai sab hit hi hai tu tension mat le. (What exam? You do not have the calibre to release it in theatres, everything is hit on OTT, so don't worry)," along with laughing emojis.

Sujoy Ghosh cleverly replied to the user's comment, saying, "Thanx bro. You just relieved me of all my tensions. Forever grateful. Big hug," concluding with a smiley emoji.

Jaane Jaan, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Vijay Varma, is scheduled to be released on Netflix on September 21, 2023.
