Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor Khan is back in a new avatar as a single mother who is embroiled in a murder investigation in the Netflix film Jaane Jaan. The film is directed by Sujoy Ghosh, who is best known for helming critically acclaimed hits such as Jhankaar Beats and Kahaani, and it is adapted from the Japanese novel Keigo Higashino, titled The Devotion of Suspect X by Keigo Higashino.

These morally ambiguous stories of gangsters who are equally feared and respected make for a compelling watch. And these movies trace their life from their humble beginnings leading up to their devastating and tragic ends. Read more
