Jogi

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.

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.

The biggest achievement of Jogi is that it depicts all characters as human beings--flawed and broken--but humans nonetheless. There are no knights in shining armours and no evil demons. Even the bad guys are not religious fanatics but political opportunists, depicting a reality that has played out far too many times in modern-day India. There have been better films on communal violence but very few as layered and as real as Jogi.

The film may be unpalatable for some given its realism and bold depiction of administration's complicity in violence against a community, but it is an important watch nonetheless, and a step forward for Hindi cinema.
