Review | Movie Info | Premiere
Lao ji “pe gayian khutian…” Jatt and Juliet has received an amazing opening and seems to be going towards the way of another Punjabi Blockbuster that Punjabis can feel proud of. Post success of Jihne Mera Dil Lutya Diljit has scored another hit with Jatt and Juliet and it’s time for the movie review and even if you haven’t seen the film you can read it as we avoided all the spoilers and haven’t disclosed the storyline.
I should be discussing plot here, but I do not want to reveal the story. Hence, I will only say that it’s a clean plot with all the ends tied up. No loophole in the story and no complaints. Yes, there is a surprise in the movie for the audience, which is… :D just kidding, watch it for yourself.
Now that we have plot out of the way, let’s talk about acting. I have come out with a formula Diljit=Awesome! As simple as that. He has played his character so well with so much vigor and dedication that he never lacks in his ability to charm people.
Diljit knows exactly how to deliver a comic punch, how to modulate his tone to suit the temperament and how to stay natural in front of camera. It’s easy to say that so and so actor acts naturally and it also seems easy to do, but in truth its one of the hardest things to do in acting. Diljit has scored 150 marks out of 100 in acting department. I really want to see him in a serious role now. Way to go Diljit, you hold the torch of excellence for the turbaned actors.
For Neeru, I have to admit that of all her films till date, this was her best. She really did fit into her role and the chemistry between Neeru and Diljit was above par. It should also be mentioned that acting upto Diljit’s charisma couldn’t have been an easy task, but Neeru pulled it off really well.
Sari Mercer, despite being a foreign actress in a Punjabi movie, she did well. I wish she had more role in the movie but whatever screen she had, she used it well.
BN Sharma and Rana Ranbir had a separate plot going and so did Jaswinder Bhalla and Upasna Singh. Rana Ranbir has made a really good come back with J&J and has successfully won the hearts. The way Diljit plays on Jaswinder Bhalla’s “Takia Kalam” of Chandigarh was very nice. A very good ploy. The truth is that they have all done better in this film as compared to their previous films, but Diljit’s comedy has over powered everyone and he turns out to be the best part of the movie.
Most impressive aspect of the film for us was the cinematography of the film. Everything from mundane objects to characters in the film have looked good. The credit also goes to the art director. The most impressive scene from the film was when Diljit’s father enters the village house at evening holding the bucket of milk. After calling his wife and handing her the bucket, he goes to the waterpump (nalka) to wash his hands. The lighting in that scene is marvelous. Apart from that the locals of Canada are captured well. It can be said that Jatt and Juliet is the first Punjabi movie to have captured the Urban Canada with all its roads, houses and commercial blocks.
Also the cinematography of the song sequences impresses much. Most impressive is the song “Baki ta bacha ho Gaya” where they have played well in the confinement of walls. The cinematographer and the director have laid out a great example of how to shoot a song in the interior and make it look huge. The same stands true for the song “Pooja Kiwein A”.
Perhaps it’s my individual perception but I found the song in the opening sequence unappealing. The main title sequence could have been better.
Dialogs are by Dheeraj Ratan. I think at the moment, in Punjabi Industry this statement is more than enough to promise that Dialogs will be of extraordinary quality. One more film well done and another shining medal around the neck of Mr. Dheeraj Ratan.
Editing wise, the film scores full marks, swifts continuity with no breaks or jerks. Punjabi cinema is finally getting better at skillful editing. Background score is great and so is the makeup (Ultimate) and costumes. Nothing feels awkward and everything fits in beautifully. While there is never much to write about these technical aspects, but it’s a great feeling to know that step by step our films are getting better at technical aspects.
When the director does his job well, everyone else gets the credit. Perhaps that’s why I’m talking about the Director when I have talked about everyone else. The art of direction lies in making everything perfect and holding all the aspects of the movie in unison. Anurag Singh has proved that there is talent in Punjab that can touch upon the subtleties of acting. Anurag deserves double the credit for everyone else who has been praised in this review, because everyone did the craft of genius under his wings and just like Director’s name appears in the end of the credits, this here is homage to the same.
One good effort from collective Punjabi Cinema is that the film has Carry On Jatta’s promo in the beginning. This shows how supportive Punjabi producers are for one another. A lot of accolades for Jatt and Juliet for this initiative.
So, it’s a great movie, surely a blockbuster and the truth is that Jatt and Juliet is so good that the only comparison you can possibly make for it is with JMDL. I’m sure Jatt & Juliet will do more business than JMDL as Punjabi Cinema rose in a steep curve post JMDL, but where would audience rank it if compared directly entertainment wise? Do leave your votes in the comments and let me know. With this I close my review ad I feel happy that I got to write my first review for such an amazing movie. I feel proud that we are starting to have such amazing films in Punjabi and I will like to thank Anurag Singh for all the Punjabis.. thanks for making such a great film. With Jatt and Juliet, you have raised the bar.

chakk te phatte :) diljit bai dil jitt leya. main ghasunn maarna je chandigarh aala ghatiya jeha dialogue dubara keha te :)
hi everyone, do anyone know wat is the name of diljit’s cell phone ringtone in dis movie or any link to download it…
plzz reply if anyone knws it…
Over rated film. Strictly okay in its execution. Next I will watch Raula Pai Gaya and Ajj de Ranjhe some time when suitable.
Oh lord….this movie is so hyped!!!! If you want to see only good colors or branded clothes or nice suits or Canada, Neeru Bajwa or are a Diljit fan, then this movie suits you. Otherwise……I mean, Diljit speaks so fast in this movie, and the plot is so flimsy…. ……and special ‘objection’ to rough language used in the film in almost every scene. What is with slapping the girl in the end?
I saw this movie and Carry on Jatta back to back, and Carry on Jatta was a much better movie with excellent performances and better writing.
Mainu es movie vich kite vee haasa nahin aaya. And Carry On Jatta left a long lasting smile.
May be youngsters crazy for paying-guest fashion or brands got attracted by this film.
Meri Pagh Di Pooni Karao Te Jatt Te Julliet Part 2 Leyao
we want jatt & juliet part 2… movie is awesome…
I just loved this movie… after a very long gap i have some seen good punjabi film… Its marvelous i mus say… diljit & neeru rocks… specially diljit with his so easy dialogue delivery & for his appealing voice…. all you guys this movie is really watchable … just go & have fun…
Rane, nice review. You have covered all aspects in your review. Actually, i am closely associated with this movie as my dad’s production house was used. Overall, a VERY nice movie. This film along with Jee aayan Nu & JMDL will be considered turning points of Punjabi film history.
However, i tend to disagree with Neeru’s performance. She is a good actress but her punjabi dialogue delivery is jerky & seems like Punjabi is not her first language. We have discovered good talent in punjabi actors in Diljit & Gippy but need more options in actresses. Kulraj Randhawa is a good option.
Most of the credit goes to Anurag for raising the bar of Punjabi cinema. Now, the focus will shift to upcoming films Carry On Jatta & Ajj de Ranjhe (by Manmohan Singh). I am eagarly waiting for Ajj de Ranjhe as part of shooting of that movie has taken place at my parent’s house in Mohali (shown as Ghuggi’s house)..:)
bahut wadiya movie he 22 ji i love jatt and juliet best punjabi movie diljit ne bas att kardi
Awesome Movie…. Must Watch..!!
Sick movie……. Diljits amazing, loved jaswinder bhalla etc everything.
Diljit maja aa gaya such a nice pic. Man
Such a nice move. 100% pesa vasool.
Must See
Really Gud movie…credit should go to dialogue writer & director first..then diljit..
Ranveer rana was OK in his shampi role, however binnu dhillon would have been a better choice, becoz he has done bhapha’s role in past & has been too gud.
nice movie but not as good as bollywood
First of all critics karn waalea nu iko gal kawanga ke punjab nu upar lai ke jao na ke thalle, eni wadia movie hai jat&juliet.i loved it fully,firstly main family nal dekhi fer girl friend naal and fer apni mandeer naal bhut khapp paayi so at last an awesome punjabi movie,here begins the golden punjabi cinema.hats off

a very balanced and allcovering review.thanks.jattandjuliet indeed is historical achievement of director anurag singh who has always been topper in whatever he did.he got goldmedal in his graduation degree in film direction from deakin university austrialia.now he is working very hard to deliver his best to punjabi cinema as it is his first love
Mainu movie de ik v dialogue te Haasa nhi Aaya..sivaye gori Di punjabi de…pata nhi ki changa lgga lokan nu…ajiT akhbaar de Gisse pitte chutkale Bol rha c…how people laugh at dialogues like…chal pag Di pooni karwa fer….unglan te naasa da size ik kyun hai….daaro pee k kinni overacting kitti hai….sukhwindeR Singh de geet to binna movie ch kuj nhi changa lgga mainu taa…..
??..har kise Di Apni pasand hundi hai….don’t mind…
Agar review punjabi Vich paaye jaan ta kinna changa hovega..
I agreed, i saw this movie last night and could not find anything special in it.
Neeru looks gorgeous, but other than that movie was very ordinary with very ordinary acting.
agreed with Diljeets overacting in drunk mode and really outdated jokes.
However, i think i should also make a punjabi movie based on canada and some scenes from Punjab Uni, looks like punjabi youth is crazy these days to see this in movies.
punjabi audience is very easy to attract, just shot some songs in Canada and PU chd, you movie is hit.
mainu doubt hai ki Honey singh da ” Dope shope ” concept copy kita hoya hai, becoz last night i watched a video on Hollywood music but cant know the singer and song, do african rap kar rahe si, Can anybody has litle bit knowledge abt this ?
Lovd that movie
Must see kind of movie
95% laughter none of bollywood movie have make us laught like that before!

First of all excellent review by Rane…u have covered all the superb aspects of the movie..to tell the truth..all the aspects were superb…I mean from start to end its a hilarious run…I think Diljit’s got gr8 talent n his acting overshadows even the finest in the industry like Jaswinder Bhalla…his comic timings dialogue delivery all’s so natural u kinda stuck in the character…want to see him in serious roles apart from comedy n see more of his talent…one of the best things of this movie in its cinematography…so much to tell like the one said by Rane…dat song “Baki tan bacha ho gya”
intelligently shot to create dat set from interior…gr8 job…acting songs direction cinematrography dialogue n a tight screenplay..all in all gud job…set a new benchmark in punjabi film industry…
A big congrats to the whole team of Jatt n Juliet….
Also i do agree wid Jagdeep Singh…kuj lok ne jina da kam sirf ik duje di leg pulling hi aa…
faltu da rola rappa…koi real appreciation nai kise de change kamm di….bas attttttt siraaaa gaaa paa taaa ahi kuj oh vi ik duje nu thalle dikhan layi….groupbaji ch paye aa…vadiya kamm di kadar nai karde….i do hope ke sare positive soch rakh ke te honestly kise de change ya bure kamm bare gall karn….Enjoy the gud movies….:)
Thanks Suresh for liking the review!

Dear Boby Bhaji,
Please review ALL THE PUNJABI MOVIES RELEASED rather than few choosen ones! ‘coz Punjabi Portal shouldn’t be biased towards one particular maker/ moviehouse.
Sidhu ji, We used to review all Punjabi movies, but honest criticism was not very well accepted. We faced many personal attacks and animosity.
So now we review only those movies that we feel must be reviewed.
Awesome movie….
Diljit ta ghaint hai…..
best comedy
Njare aa gaye…:)
One small request to the Punjabi Portal fellows. Plz-plz review ALL THE PUNJABI MOVIES RELEASED rather than few choosen ones! ‘coz Punjabi Portal shouldn’t be biased towards one particular maker/ moviehouse.
all record breaks first day collection 80lac
Me and 3 of my friends went to Omaxe to watch the movie today, but there wasn’t even a single ticket free.. They said its houseful..all shows sold out. So much so, that only 2 tickets are free tomorrow. Some guys standing there at the counter were saying ” bhaji 100 rupayee wadh lelo, par ticket dedo.” “bhawe thalle bethado par ticket dedo…”
You should have booked the tickets in advance. Book it in advance now or wait for few days :)
yr punjabiYAN DI TAUR HI VAKHRI HAI
Spot On!! With the Review Rane. Absolutely wonderful Movie by Anurag Singh. The guy got tons of talent. Happy to see some good cinema is finally coming on big screen. Proud of it.

I can always count in punjabiportal reviews. Thanx veere
best ever punjabi movie , Dialogue bhut zabardast ne , gal digan hi nai dinda koi !
Inna haasa kade nai ayeaa !
Now this film should have been released in Chicago after much publicity. Too bad the first Punjabi film released in Chicago was HHIL (only 2 people went to watch it over one week and those two were the two who called the print of the film or something like that) and then Khushiyaan, which could not find any audience here.
Indianapolis….except for Indiana people, not many have the time to go there. May be it will recover some money there, but Chicago would have been a bigger and better choice.
excellent review…..
Thanks for an excellent review !! Damn, i missed the premier !! cant wait to watch it.
Thanks for the review. Hun ta pakka e jana pena khuttiyan paun.
And there shuld be not any groupism in Punjabi audience like—-yo yo, diljit, gippy group duja babbu maan wale ( aat karati 22 ne, sira 22 etc etc….) , miss pooja group . Eh sare jane face book n other social media te ik duje dian tanga khichi jande rehnde ne. A single finger cant do anything but jad MUKKA ban janda tan koi nazdik ni lagda.. so be united we are only 2 %…………eka rakho punjabio…always talk +ve things…..aje tan shuruatn……………bahut agge lai k jana Maa boli nu……….be united
I agree with you completely!
bahut he sahi gal aakhi jagdeep bai.
yea morons fighting over wjo is best, it makes me sick to see punjabi’s are specially biggest legpullers of each other. And some fukrey know nothing more dan , att ae baiji, sirrrrraaaaaaaaa, burrraaaaa, kaaaiiiimm, gaaaa paa ta.
I fully agree wih Mr. Jagdeep Singh that one day Bollywood will look towards Punjabi movie idustry. But the makers have to refrian from getting typed and keep trying out various geners.
I M WAITING FOR THE DAY WHEN BOLLYWOOD VI LOHA MANNU PUNJABI FILMAN DA ……….
