Jaaneman[a] is a 2012 Indian Bengali language road action adventure film directed by Raja Chanda. The film is jointly produced by Shrikant Mohta and Nispal Singh under the banner of Shree Venkatesh Films and Surinder Films respectively.

The story, screenplay and dialogues of the film were written by N.K Salil, while the soundtrack was composed by Jeet Gannguli. It revolves around a carefree boy Deva, who is unaware of his job, falling in love with Riya at first sight in Siliguri. On their journey to Kolkata by car, coincidentally each gets attacked by their enemies and circumstances force them to reveal each of their dark past to one other.

Reception
A critic from The Indian Express rated the film three out of five and wrote that "Raja Chanda had a good story going but with a focus that gets split between romance on the one hand and action on the other, after a point of time, he seems to lose control over the film, if not on the action".[1]
