Jagga Jasoos
Jagga Jasoos is an Indian musical adventure and romantic comedy written and directed by Anurag Basu, and produced by Basu and Ranbir Kapoor. The film features Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and Adah Sharma in lead roles.
Jagga (Ranbir Kapoor) is a curious but reticent young boy in a quaint little town who lives a happy life with his accident-prone father, Bagchi (Saswata Chatterjee). After admitting Jagga in a boarding school, his father suddenly disappears. Feeling abandoned, Jagga’s only contact with his father is a VHS tape that he receives in the mail every year on his birthday. Armed with sharp detective skills, Jagga sets out to solve the mystery of his missing parent. Along the way he finds a partner in Shruti (Katrina Kaif) an accident-prone journalist with her own international criminal case to solve. Using a few tricks he learnt from Bagchi, Jagga and Shruti embark on a mission to uncover details of his father’s mysterious life and find themselves embroiled in a worldwide smuggling racket.
One-time watch
It’s an interesting movie, but it is not all that engaging. I love the plot, but it will appeal more to kids. It is, at best, a one-time watch.

Lead pair rocks
I really like the film, Ranbeer and Katrina are my favourite on-screen couple. I have been a fan of their jodi since Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. In this film too, they sizzle.

Predictable and boring
It’s a very boring film. The plot of the film is extremely predictable and the characters are very boring. Perhaps, it is just not my kind of film.
