Anees Bazmee, Amruta Subhash EXCLUSIVE: Jarann, No Entry 2, Diljit Dosanjh, Deepika-Vanga Row
Anees Bazmee's debut Marathi production venture Jarann starring Amruta Subhash released in cinemas today. In an exclusive chat with CNN-News18 Showsha's Titas Chowdhury, the duo talks about coming together to tell a tale of black magic. Anees spills the beans on why he toned down the horror quotient in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and finally reacts to Diljit Dosanjh's rumoured exit from No Entry 2. Amruta, on the other hand, speaks about how Naseeruddin Shah reacted after watching her play Ranveer Singh's mother in Gully Boy and how Zoya Akhtar told her that she wouldn't mind if she turns the offer down. The duo further shares their stance on Deepika Padukone reportedly demanding an 8-hour shift that led to her exit from Spirit.

‘Jarann' review: Amruta Subhash is terrified, terrifying and terrific in horror thriller
In the demonetisation-themed crime drama Choked (2020), Amruta Subhash's character has a fit when she hears about the note ban. Subhash is brilliant in this scene, covering a gamut of emotions in mere minutes. The highly mobile face that can switch expression without warning, the ability to summon complex emotions, the power to create empathy – Subhash's protean talent gets the platform it deserves in Jarann. Much of the impact of Rushikesh Gupte's Marathi movie is down to the choice of Subhash for the lead role. Gupte's Jarann (black magic, or bewitchment) attempts to reorient the horror genre. Subhash plays Radha, who has been living under a dark cloud since her childhood. Ganguti (Anita Date), who is deemed a witch, dooms Radha to life-long misery. Given whatever befalls Radha in her adulthood, Ganguti's curse appears to be working. A recent mishap in Radha's life has compelled her to consult the psychiatrist Dhananjay (Kishor Kadam). Ganguti's malevolent influence reasserts itself when Radha visits her ancestral house along with her daughter Saie (Avanee Joshi). Ganguti follows Radha and Saie back to their own home, pushing an already high-strung Radha further to the edge. Cinematographer Milind Jog and editor Abhijeet Deshpande are in perfect sync, conveying Radha's perilous situation though creeping camerawork and judicious transitions. AV Prafulla Chandra's ominous soundtrack nudges viewers into shutting their eyes at the right moment – some scenes in Jarann are truly scary. But Jarann wants to be more than a horror film. Hrishikesh Gupte's screenplay is perched in the grey zone between occult belief and psychological fragility, old-fashioned witchery and an enlightened view of paranormal occurrences. The 120-minute film is stacked – overloaded even – with spine-tingling elements, from mouldy attics to seances, scary-looking dolls to altered voices. Running parallel to the frequently doled out jump scares is a conversation about the source of Radha's plight. However, there are convenient holes in the film's premise, especially in the handling of Radha's parents (Rajan Bhise and Seema Deshmukh) and extended family. Given what we eventually learn about Radha, the behaviour of her family members is improbable, inexcusable even. Parenting is a big theme in Jarann, most vividly expressed in Radha's anxiety that Ganguti has infected her daughter too. But for the sake of maintaining suspense, the film sidesteps the role played by Radha's family in their reactions to the Ganguti problem. The twist-heavy climax undermines the film's approach towards its subject matter. Although Jarann lacks the courage of its convictions, there is no hesitation whatsoever in Subhash's performance. Whatever the drawbacks of his film, Rushikesh Gupte deserves kudos for picking the right vehicle for his ambitions. Amruta Subhash is terrified, terrifying and terrific. In scene after scene, Subhash conveys the utter loneliness and anguish of a woman labouring under an unimaginable burden. There are sharp supporting turns too from Kishor Kadam and Anita Date as the mumbo-jumbo spouting Ganguti. Play

Anees Bazmee Ventures Into Marathi Cinema With Jarann, Trailer Out Now
Last Updated: Anees Bazmee's debut Marathi film features National Award-winning actor Amruta Subhash. Acclaimed filmmaker Anees Bazmee is ready to foray into Marathi cinema, debuting with his upcoming psychological horror film Jarann. Starring National Award-winning actor Amruta Subhash, the first trailer has finally been released with some chilling visuals and an unsettling mood. Bazmee is known for delivering some major Bollywood hits like Welcome, No Entry, Singh Is Kinng, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. A trailer launch event was held in Mumbai on Friday, with several celebrities in attendance, like Jackie Shroff, Anil Sharma, Raj Mehta, Vikas Bahl, and Bazmee himself. At the event, the filmmaker expressed his excitement about expanding into Marathi cinema with a story that he hopes will resonate beyond language barriers. 'This subject is deeply rooted in our society. Personally, I don't believe in ghosts—but if you asked me to go to a deserted mansion at 2 a.m., I wouldn't go. That's because I've witnessed a lot over time. Some people do practice black magic, and many hold strange, deep-seated beliefs. This kind of superstition has existed in our society for generations, and it's not something that can be erased overnight," he said, giving hints about the narrative. Previously, in a statement, Bazmee shared how he admired the depth and quality of Marathi cinema. 'When I saw this film's narrative, I was immediately drawn to its strength and the director's vision. It's a privilege to support such meaningful storytelling," he added, as per the Times of India. Coming back to the trailer, Amruta Subhash will be seen as a married woman whose ordinary life takes an unexpected turn due to some unexplainable eerie incidents. The video opens to show several happy family moments, only to show the woman encountering unusual things in her house. Moments later, Amruta will be seen exhibiting signs of possession, leaving her family members terrified. Apart from Amruta Subhash, other cast members include Anita Date Kelkar, Kishor Kadam, Jyoti Malshe, Rajan Bhise, Seema Deshmukh, Vikram Gaikwad, Avanee Joshi and Durva Deodhar in key roles. Presented by Anees Bazmee in association with A&N Cinema LLP, Jarann is written and directed by Rushikesh Gupte. The film will be released on June 5. First Published:
