Summary
Reviewers say 'Jogi' is a poignant film about the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, exploring themes of friendship and political corruption. Praised for its emotional impact and Diljit Dosanjh's performance, the movie is commended for its gripping narrative and direction. However, some criticize pacing, logic, and subplots. The film's sensitive portrayal of the tragedy is both lauded and critiqued for not delving deeper into complexities.
Featured reviews
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.

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.
A story revolving around a power hungry politician who goes on to eliminate Punjabi community post Indira Gandhi's assassination in Delhi. Watch how Jogi comes to their rescue risking his and his friends lives.
Writing of the film is to the point. I couldn't see any character which were portrayed had flaws. Hats off to the entire team of Jogi. Music or background score isn't top notch but keeps you engaging with the film.
I truly wished they had shown what happens to the main antagonist in end but that's just my curiosity.
I highly recommend everyone to watch this. I am not sure if the film ever released in theatres, but it deserves to be.

Whilst I do appreciate these earnest attempts, the problem with 'Jogi' is its shallow scripting. While it did shed some light on the killing of our then Prime Minister Ms. Indira Gandhi, and the unimaginable monstrosities that ensued; I believe that there was a lot more to inquire into. The creators have made their choice to not delve deeper into the core subject, or to talk about any of the deep-seated politics that was involved.
They have chosen to constrain themselves inside an invisible enclosure, that prevented them from taking any names of any influential figures or the political parties they associated with, I assume it was to stay away from further disputes and debates.
Albeit I wish they had done otherwise.
That being said, this movie is still deeply affecting. I cannot fathom the sufferings, the horrors, all the Innocent people had to put up with. Some scenes will terrify you, will make you infuriated, and before you could realize what and why is this taking place, tears will be rolling down, your heart will get heavy, and you will feel devastated by the barbarity. It may as well take hours or even days to recover from what you've just witnessed!
Get ready for an emotional roller coaster!

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.
