Jogi

Some films leave you stunned with sheer power. Long after you've watched the film, it still sends a chill down your spine if you recall the incidents. Diljit Dosanjh's Jogi (Netflix) based on 1984 sikh genocide is one such film. An intense drama. Bit of slow but Keeps you hooked throughout. #Jogi touches some raw nerves with facts & soul shaking scenes from 84 Sikh genocide. With Top Notch direction Jogi successfully Brings out the pain which has been forgotten years ago. It's definitely hard hitting, but with much needed sensitivity. And I really don't have words to explain what I am feeling right now. Remember ~ 1984 was a genocide of Sikhs not riots.

The truth is too scary and it would have taken immense courage for one to be brutally honest in the depiction of 1984 riots against a particular minority community (Sikh) that took place in almost all part of the country (specially Northern region) in the same time duration.

They chose the narrative from a single person perspective, thus limiting the story line to a man and a lane in a city (that happens to be the national capital as well). Considering the limited approach to one of the terrifying incident in the history of mankind, I would say team Jogi did quite well.

Very intense screenplay, specially the escape sequence and commendable acting by all the main characters. The makers were also successfully in embedding the love story of the lead character without compromising the intensity of the plot (this has something to do with editing department).

This movie wouldn't disappoint you, just watch it with an open mind without too much expectation.

This movie showed how brutally Sikhs were killed in 1984 delhi riots. Loved how Diljit portrayed the character. The best part of the movie is it teaches that friendship is above everything in this world and hate just leads to wars, riots. I believe that every aspect of the war was shown beautifully by Ali abbas zafar. Although i would have loved to watch this movie in theaters. Rest assured you 1 hour and 56 mins are not gonna be wasted. The one who loved Kashmir files movie should also see this.

The acting skills of Mohd. Zeeshan, Paresh Ahuja and Kumud Mishra is also awesome But one thing please dont judge politicians and Police based on this movie because only few people are corrupt in this system.

This is an incident that the Indian government will never want anyone to tell. The story revolves around the killing of India Gandhi by her two Sikh guards and the aftermath. The systemic reaction from the government of India against the Sikh people.

The movie does not hold back, it shows the violence against the Sikh people, how the police supported goons by supplying them with ammunition to go out there and create chaos. Hit lists were made of which Sikh people need to be killed.

Pro hinduists using the situation to incite violence is nothing new to India, recently similar situations happened in Gujrat against Muslims.

From an acting perspective, solid performances from Diljit and Zeeshan, all the supporting cast were good to.

The sad thing is that the reality must have 100 times worse that what the movie depicts.

Expect a lot of Modi boys coming on a forum like this and giving this movie low scores to discourage people from watching this movie.

This is current face of India, everything else is just an illusion.

Thank god for streaming, I don't a movie like would be allowed to be shown on the big screens in India.

I must say that this movie took me by surprise. I didn't expect this movie to be that good.

This movie is based on true events, which took place during the mid '80s. Those were the times when many countries had racial and religious riots.

I wasn't aware of these bitter events that took place in India during the '80s, so it was so sad to see that the assassination of one human being, led people in attempting to take revenge and brutally ethnic cleanse one whole race from one particular country just because two members from their ethnic group happened to be the ones who assassinated their Prime Minister.

I think the cast did an excellent job and the movie was produced and directed perfectly, so this one deserves a perfect 10 stars from me as it's one of the best films I've seen in a very long time.

This is one film which is not to be missed and I would highly recommend it.. I recommend the dubbed in English version if Hindi/Urdu isn't your first language.
