    It was great....only till the very end.

    To begin with, I loved the casting for this movie. All three 3 are great fit for their part but Jaideep Ahlawat just shines a bit brighter. The story begins in a mellow, small town, following the same mood but picks up straightaway. Love the mood it sets and the world it tries to create. There's a good amount of thrill, if not absolute mystery, all along the way. The story keeps building and building to the big reveal, the final act, the 'Prestige' ....BUT, the climax just lets you down. Not that it's a failed climax. No, not at all. But you're just left wanting for a more shocking moment after such a long buildup. It is perfectly believable but not what the remaining 2 hours built up to. It lacked a level of shock and awe that was expected. It's a mixed feeling. Would have given the overall film a good 8, but the climax pull it down to a 6. Still a good watch.

    A solid mystery thriller... Jaideep Ahlawat shines 👍👍

    Well are you a sucker for good old murder mystery thrillers? Then I'll highly recommend this movie to you Great performances by the 3 main leads Especially Jaideep ahlawat Dude just stole the show with his acting here Also you may find a major similarity with Drishyam1 No no its not copied from Drishyam1 technically Because the novel this movie is based on i.e "the devotion of suspect X"Drishyam 1's storyline was losely based on this novel only So here one similarity you'll naturally find in this movie with Drishyam But overall the characters bring nice originality and suspense Will keep you hooked on from start.

    Movie is all Japdeep Ahlawat acting

    Jaideep Ahlawat delivers an exceptional performance, intricately portraying subtle nuances like his character's realization of Maya's (Kareena) true feelings, reflected in his expressions throughout. When Jaideep interacts with the students, it brings a delightful touch of joy. Coupled with a captivating storyline, this movie is an absolute must-watch.

    Kareena blends seamlessly into her role, becoming just another face in the crowd, while Vijay's performance leaves a lasting impression. The director ensures there's no excess of songs, which is highly commendable.

    This movie is a must-see if you're seeking a compelling storyline combined with powerful acting.

    A mindbender in the true sense!! Jaideep Ahlawat is brilliant!!

    Film Review: Jaane Jaan streaming on Netflix

    Directed by Sujoy Ghosh, this film is a true mindbender with its brilliantly executed twists and turns!!

    A mother (Kareena Kapoor) with a murky past is hiding from an abusive husband in Kalimpong when her past catches up with her. She accidentally kills her husband and is in a dilemma about what needs to be done! Her introvert neighbour Naren ( Jaideep Ahlawat), a nerdy yet brilliant mathematician who secretly loves Kareena agrees to help her out and that's when the cat and mouse game with the police begins !! Vijay Verma plays a sharp, handsome & suave Mumbai cop who is coincidentally in Kalimpong in search of Kareena's husband who is wanted in another case !! Who will prevail in the end, the nerd or the cop is what this film is all about!!

    All three lead actors -Kareena , Vijay Varma & Jaideep Ahlawat are brilliant in their respective roles , especially Ahlawat with his make-up, quirky mannerisms and calm demeanor in the most stressful of situations!! The guy seems to be getting better by the day!!

    Screenplay is crisp and is engaging from the first scene itself. Brilliant direction by Sujoy Ghosh coupled with great Cinematography depicting the dull and gloomy landscape of Kalimpong is also worth a mention!!

    A mind bender in the true sense!! Must watch for true aficionados of this genre!!

    Going with 3.5 ⭐⭐⭐✨ for this one.. adios 🙂!!

    Disappointing climax!

    It is a prime example of a tastefully decorated ship smoothly covering all its due course, only to sink helplessly right before penetrating the premises of the destined harbour. It is a Story that did everything right and ticked every box only to underwhelm at the onset of its climactic segment!

    Finales are highly critical for any film, let alone for a murder mystery feature because it is that particular juncture where threads get loose, revelations crop up on the surface, and even a single mistake could jeopardise the whole situation. I am afraid that was exactly what transpired in this case!

    Mr. Ghosh, what the heck happened to you? This is the same person who made films like Kahaani, Badla, Bob Biswas, some of my absolute favourites. Where was that Sujoy Ghosh I knew and adored? I expected much better from him.

    P. S. Regardless of the writing and its drawbacks, the performances were impressive. Bebo, Jaideep and Vijay, all three, had done great, as was expected from them.

    • Trivia
      This adaptation of the Japanese novel "The Devotion of Suspect X" by Keigo Higashino has been planned for nearly a decade. Produced by Ekta Kapoor and directed by Sujoy Ghosh, it would have starred Saif Ali Khan (Kareena Kapoor's real-life husband), Aishwarya Rai (replaced by Jacqueline Fernandez, then by Kangana Ranaut), and Fawad Khan. It was shelved in 2014 as it was deemed too similar to the Malayalam film Drishyam (2013) and the in-production Hindi remake Drishyam (2015). Production restarted in 2022 with Kareena Kapoor, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Vijay Verma.
