Jagga Jasoos | Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif | July 14, 2017

Actor Ranbir Kapoor's father Rishi Kapoor launched a blistering attack on Anurag Basu, director of his son's new film Jagga Jasoos, calling him 'irresponsible' in an interview with mid-day. Over the years in the making, endlessly delayed, repeatedly shelved - the wait for Jagga Jasoos rivaled the fabled literary wait for Godot. Unlike the existentially ambiguous Godot, however, Jagga Jasoos, starring Ranbir and Katrina Kaif, did finally arrive, releasing in theatres two Fridays ago (not without drama, more on that below). Reviews were good, business was not. And while Ranbir, also the producer, has diplomatically refrained from publicly censuring his director (Anurag Basu directed Ranbir in the very successful Barfi! some years ago), Rishi Kapoor has denounced the behind-the-scenes action in his trademark outspoken style.

Actor Ranbir Kapoor, who was present at Sanjay Dutt's 'Bhoomi' trailer launch, revealed that he had approached the star for a guest appearance in his first production venture - 'Jagga Jasoos'. Speaking at the event, Ranbir said, "I think every role written in the film industry goes to him first. It passes through him and then it filters down. It was my first production. It was a special appearance and we wanted to carry it in the second part. Anurag Basu (director) and I thought there was nobody better than Sanju sir to play the part."
He further added, "The first time he (Dutt) heard it, he gladly agreed to do it. But there were some issues with the release of his first film. So, I thought may be the next time."

Yesterday i watched Jagga Jasoos, OMG it's so amazing. One of the best musical, mystery film in hindi. A masterpiece by Anurag Basu. It's very sad that it didn't get success in box office. But it deserves a sequel.
Acting, choreography, story, everything was top notch. I really loved Saswata Chatterjee's character in this film. It's even better than Barfi .. .
