Johar shared the trailer on Instagram and wrote, “It’s here… A collaborative effort, yet uniquely individual. Presenting #AjeebDaastaans with 4 exceptionally talented #DirectorsOfDharma, coming together to weave 4 individual stories that are stranger than reality itself.”
“I can’t wait to see how each one paints their canvas with their own shade of cinema and storytelling! Some stories take you places, but these 4 will take you somewhere you never thought you’d be.#AjeebDaastaans premieres 16 April, only on Netflix,” he added.
Ajeeb Daastaans will showcase four stories exploring various human flaws and emotions like jealousy, entitlement, prejudices and toxicity, which often lead to complexity in human relationships.
Netflix has previously released a couple of anthologies that have received critical acclaim. Lust Stories and Ghost Stories on Netflix saw rave reviews. Now the audience expects nothing less than cinematic brilliance from Ajeeb Daastaans.
