MUMBAI: The quartet of filmmakers — Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap and Dibaker Banerjee — have announced that their upcoming Netflix film “Ghost Stories” will debut on January 1, 2020.

Karan took to Twitter to share the news and also posted a teaser video, where all the directors give a glimpse about their respective short stories.
“You known, last year we did ‘Lust Stories’ and we had so much fun. You all saw that and enjoyed, and we decided to go one step further. Something that has changed things for all of us. We ventured into a space that none of had been in before,” they said in the short clip.
They added the film is about “things that are not really human”.
Karan teased that his short might revolve around a “big fat wedding”, while Zoya’s film will deal with “innocent kindergarten rhymes”.
“Bird songs don’t sound sweet anymore,” said Anurag.
