Jogi is a 2022 Indian Hindi-language period drama film directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and co-written by Sukhmani Sadana. It was released on Netflix on 16 September 2022 and is set amidst the backdrop of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots, with a cast including Diljit Dosanjh, Kumud Mishra, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Hiten Tejwani and Amyra Dastur.
Upon its release on Netflix, Jogi received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for the performances (especially of Ayyub's, Mishra's and Dosanjh's), direction, cinematography, background score, editing, production design, and themes. However, the screenplay and depiction of the 1984 anti-Sikh riots received a polarizing response.
