about
Karan
Johar's
post,
the
filmmaker
also
shared
a
message
regarding
the
film
while
sharing
the
trailer
of
the
same.
He
called
Ajeeb
Daastaans
a
collaborative
effort,
yet
uniquely
individual
in
its
own
way.
The
director
stated
how
four
exceptionally
talented
filmmakers
have
come
out
to
weave
four
individual
stories
that
are
stranger
than
reality
itself.
Karan
added
that
he
cannot
wait
to
witness
how
the
directors
have
painted
their
canvas
with
their
own
shade
of
cinema
and
storytelling.
The
filmmaker
said
that
some
stories
tend
to
take
you
to
places
but
Ajeeb
Daastaans
will
take
one
to
a
place
where
they
never
thought
they
would
be.
