Based on real events, the fictional drama Jogi takes place in Delhi during the anti-Sikh riots of 1984.?The terror that followed the death of the country's first lady, Indira Gandhi, in OctoberĄŻ84, is shown in the movie Jogi. The main character Jogi, played by Diljit Dosanjh, tells this horrifying story from his point of view.
Jogi vows to put up a fight to try and save as many people as he can from the quagmire of violence that will soon engulf the city when Delhi turns its back on Sikhs and indulges in rioting.
Two of Jogi's buddies, a Hindu policeman named Rawinder Chautala and a Muslim truck owner named Kaleem, step up to offer their assistance. Like the proverb that goes, "A friend in need is a friend indeed." Even in the conclusion, the narrative praises their friendship.
The story of Jogi is about a young man trying to survive as the entire city is burning down, saving people and working alongside them rather than only thinking about himself.
As the everyday person determined to help as many people as he can, Diljit provides a sincere performance. Every facet of his performance skillfully combines the bewilderment at the intense hatred that is erupting in Delhi while the sorrow of losing his loved ones and protecting his community.
The movie is an emotional rollercoaster that will undoubtedly give you the chills. For instance, when Jogi visits Baoli to cut his hair in order to save his people.
For unversed, In Sikhism, the practice of letting one's hair grow naturally out of appreciation for the perfection of God's creation plays a significant part.?
We would highly recommend you watch Jogi, it's an eye-opener with a great cast.
