Jogira Sara Ra Ra Review: Nawazuddin and Neha’s comedy succeeds in making one laugh

The interest of Hindi cinema has increased a lot in small towns. It is also interesting to see the lifestyle, colloquial, carefree style there in films. Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Neha Sharma’s Kushan Nandi directed Jogira Sara Ra Ra is taking this trend forward.

What is the story of the film?

The story of this film begins in Bareilly, where Dimple Chaubey (Neha Sharma) creates a ruckus in a marriage in a drunken state. Removes deficiencies in marriage dinner. Actually, she ran away from home because her family wanted her to get married. She meets Jogi Pratap (Nawazuddin Siddiqui), a wedding planner. He gives her money to go home. After some time both of them meet again.

The marriage that Jogi has got the order to get done is Dimple’s. Dimple tells Jogi to break her marriage at any cost. Dimple’s future husband Lallu (Mahakshay Chakraborty) does a government job, is simple and is marrying Dimple without dowry.

It is not easy for a Jogi to break a marriage by finding shortcomings in an all-rounded boy. Jogi plans to kidnap Dimple. In this he is helped by his partner Manu (Rohit Chowdhary), as he once worked in the Chowdhary gang, which used to commit such kidnappings.

The news of Dimple’s kidnapping reaches the Chowdhary gang, which has nothing to do with the kidnapping. His own kidnapping operation isn’t going well. Will Dimple’s marriage break? Will Jogi’s jugaad work or will he himself get trapped in it? The story progresses on this.

How are the screenplay, acting and dialogues?

Kushan Nandy, who directed Babumoshai Bandookbaaz, has tried his hand at pure comedy this time. His attempt at choosing the story is good, but the weak direction and sloppy editing make the scenes boring at many places.

The story of the film written by writer Ghalib Asad Bhopali is definitely simple, but according to the circumstances, the dialogues and one-liners written by him do the rounds. The scene explaining the process of kidnapping with the help of carrom board pieces is funny. The writing and Sanjay Mishra’s performance takes it to a different level.

Virendra Gharse’s hesitation to buy sanitary pads and pregnancy test kit from medical, how much dowry a boy should take according to his profession could have been edited to make the scenes tighter, because these issues do not move forward in any direction. The casting of Jogi and Dimple’s family is excellent.

A lonely Jogi amidst mother, four sisters, an aunt, the reason why he runs away from women and marriage can be understood without any dialogue. When the characters of the film seem closer to reality and get connected with them, Jogi’s sudden transformation from a common man to a hero breaks the connection with the story. The film slows down after the interval.

Some episodes are very drawn out. At the same time, the climax has been dealt with in a hurry. Written by Lyricist Lavraj and Suvarna Tiwari, Anandi Joshi’s song ‘Angana Mein Aaya Hai Jahaj Babua…’ is ear-pleasing. Cinematographer Saurabh Waghmare has captured some of the best visuals of Varanasi in this song. Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who has been playing serious roles, proves that he is also adept at comedy.

Neha Sharma tries to hold on to her character, although her urban style is visible at some places. Rohit Chowdhary in the role of Jogi’s friend attracts attention. Sanjay Mishra thrashes about in a small role as the head of the Chowdhary gang. It is a delight to see Farrukh Zafar on screen in the role of a grandmother
