Jagga Jasoos (English: Detective Jagga) is an upcoming Indian musical adventure romantic comedy film 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, and tells the story of a teenage detective in search of his missing father. The film is scheduled for release on 7 April 2017.
Filming took place in Cape Town, South Africa. Actress Katrina Kaif underwent training in martial arts for her role in the film, supplementing the martial arts she had previously learned for Ek Tha Tiger. Reports from Cape Town were that the real-world romance of leads Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif and occasional arguments between the two caused some delays and resulted in scenes not having the impact intended by director Anurag Basu. By 20 March 2014, the director had completed 20 days of filming with his leads and, being unhappy with initial efforts by actor Ranbir Kapoor, intends to use the additional schedule time to re-shoot some scenes. Ranbir Kapoor has been simultaneously shooting for Anurag Kashyap's Bombay Velvet. The director explained, "We've to shoot Jagga Jasoos during the gaps in the shooting of Bombay Velvet. We completed one schedule. Now we'll go into a lengthy schedule from August. By the end of the year the shooting would be complete." On 21 October 2014, the team started filming in Thailand. On 20 April 2016, they filmed in Darjeeling. Ravi Varman is the Director of Photography.
The film was originally going to release on 27 November 2015, but due to conflicting commitments by the lead actors, the film's release date was pushed to 7 April 2017.
The film is scheduled to be released on 7 April 2017.The first look of the film was released in December 2016.
Songs of the movie have been composed by Pritam and have lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya. The film is said to be a Musical and will have a lot of songs. There were reports that the film will have as many as 20 songs but Pritam said he is still unsure about the final count and that it was the most difficult movie he has ever worked on. Ranbir Kapoor will be seen singing most of his dialogues rather than say them.
