The trailer of Jazbaa opened to a mostly good response from viewers on Tuesday, but some negative reviews about Aishwarya Rai's overacting' and the colour grading in the film riled director Sanjay Gupta.
One such review was from a critic who is going to be a filmmaker soon.
Gupta took to Twitter to slam that critic.

Some of these pseudo critics are wannabe directors walking around with scripts & all their frustration comes out in their reviews.

In the review, Sanjay Gupta is called a legendary plagiarist' for ripping off foreign films and passing them off as his own. Even Jazbaa' is a remake of the Korean film Seven Days'.
The review also questions Aishwarya Rai's acting in the film.

Gupta added that he can take criticism, but not ridicule.

I accept criticism whole heartedly as a reminder of the mistakes I may have made. But will not accept ridicule in the name of criticism.

I just deleted a tweet. When there is so much praise, happiness and joy on my TL then why get into any negativity at all? :-)))
