When you are suffering from a creative setback all you want is to come out of it. And when you find the means to overcome it, it is indeed noteworthy. Jugni goes in the lines of such findings. Well, let’s delve deep into the movie.

Plot

Sugandha Garg Sugandha Garg is famously known as an Actor, Singe >> Read More... is an independent and competent musician, who embarks on a journey to a rustic area, to rekindle her creative finesse. She takes on the journey to find Sadhana Singh Sadhana Singh is a veteran, talented and senior ac >> Read More... (a reputed Punjabi folk artiste), whom she believes has the required voice to make her career bloom. But it happens that she gets acquainted with Sadhana’s son Siddhant Behl Jugni fame Siddhant Behl is a newbie in Indian cin >> Read More... (who is a happening local singing artist) first. Sidhant’s passion for life and his effective voice strikes the right chord with Sughandha. And needless to say, Sidhant and Sugandha share a zeal for music, and this becomes instrumental in developing their relationship to the next level (it’s another issue that while Sidhant is has a village sweetheart, Sugandha has a boyfriend in the city). And the life-altering situations both these individuals’ life form the rest of the film.

Star Performances

Sugandha Garg expresses a plethora of emotions, which is very much required for her character, with ease. Siddharth Behl, who is also the assistant writer of the movie, shows promise and his screen presence is endearing. He charms you with his essaying of an innocent village guy who believes in his heart. Anirutta K Jha, who plays the role of the local sweetheart of Behl, does a convincing job.

Analysis

Debutante Shefali Bhushan, who is also the writer of Jugni, delves into the life of two contrasting characters in the film. These characters are brought together through the powerful strength of music. When Sugantha connects again with her inner self, she gets to know the stark difference between rural and urban life. Her soul-searching process is indeed endearing when said in words, but when you watch the film, you feel that it could have been much better. However, you get a peep into the troubles of impoverished folk performers.

What’s there?

The intention of Jugni is good.
Romance is shown in a different way in this film.
The soul-stirring music of Clinton Cerejo Clinton Cerejo is an Indian singer and music produ >> Read More... is one of the USPs of the movie.
The dialogues and lyrics of Shellee gel well with the tempo of the movie.
One can connect with the characters of the movie.
Navnita Sen Datta has edited the film in a crisp manner.
The cinematography of Diwakar Mani is outstanding. He brings the beauty of the rural areas in its full glory.
The climax of the film is worth the wait.

What’s not there?

Though the basic premise is good, the script is immature.
The relationship between the lead pair could have been executed in an, even more, better manner.
Sometimes, the movie is in predictable lines.

Verdict

The soul-stirring music, the unseen beauty of rural areas of Punjab, and the different theme, makes this film worth a watch.
