Filmmaker Sujoy Ghosh, who worked with Kareena Kapoor in 'Jaane Jaan', said that he was sceptical about casting the actress due to public misconception about her. "Many told me Kareena would never shoot in Darjeeling, but that wasn't the case. She was committed fully," added Sujoy. He said he'd imagine Kareena playing the character while he was writing the film.
