Movie Verdict
When a film is based on a genuine event, the audience will certainly relate to it, as some of them may have been in a similar situation or perhaps lived it. Jogi is a film that features situations and events that will certainly resonate with the Indian audience. Despite being only 1 hour and 56 minutes long, the film never feels rushed due to the captivating emotional scenes. Excellently written and performed emotional scenes are portrayed by the actors on screen.
Undoubtedly, Diljit Dosanjh’s performance will be remembered long after the movie has concluded. Mohd. Kumud Mishra is a fantastic actor who can play any character assigned to him, and his performances are never disappointing. As proven by his performance in this film, Zeeshan Ayyub is yet another excellent actor who is underutilized within the Hindi film industry. Amyra Dastur, along with the other actors, played their roles as required by the plot.
The film Jogi appears to be technically sound. The music composed by Julius Packiam and Sameer Uddin complements the scenes and intensifies the emotions of the audience. The cinematography of Marcin, LaskaWiec, and USC Marcin is acceptable in a few shots, but their total efforts fall short of expectations. The art staff deserves great recognition for their attempts to recreate the environment of the 1980s. The production quality of this film is adequate.
Ali Abbas Zafar, the film’s director, was pleased with the actor’s directorial skills and dedication to the plot without unnecessary detours.
Based on actual events, Jogi is an overall interesting and watchable emotional drama that will surely make you feel miserable.
