Jagga Jasoos trailer: Ranbir, Katrina rock a goofy avatar

Strap on your seatbelts because it is going to get bumpy! The first trailer of Anurag Basu’s ‘Jagga Jasoos’ featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif is going to transport you to the world full of dreams.

Ranbir Kapoor says literally one line in the entire trailer of Anurag Basu’s Jagga Jasoos(and Katrina Kaif says nothing at all) and yet the trailer speaks volumes about the film.

The visually appealing trailer is a mix of several Disney flicks, taking us on a whimsical ride Bollywood has never offered before.

The trailer begins with an introduction to Ranbir and Katrina’s characters and while the film seems to be shot all over India, they first meet in Manipur. Ranbir is a quirky guy, and in essence, so is Katrina, and we are taken through a dreamy, whirlwind journey — with ostrich rides, bike rides through the dessert, races with elephants, and much more adventure.

The look and feel of the film give you a whiff of Basu’s earlier movie with Ranbir, Barfi!mostly because Ranbir is seen in school clothes and as a hosteler. But then we see him in multiple avatars. Not much is revealed about ages or any other character details.

However, with Disney producing the film, you definitely get a sense of watching a children’s film. Whether that is a pro or con for Jagga Jasoos, only time will tell.

Amid all the visuals, the last 30 seconds of the trailer *finally* reveal something about Katrina and Ranbir’s chemistry.

From Rajneeti to Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahaani, this is the first time they looked relaxed as two goofy but affable lead protagonists. Maybe the hype around their personal life has helped them on-screen much like Jab We Met worked for Shahid, and Kareena Kapoor.

Due to its quirkiness,  Jagga Jasoos also bares subtle resemblance to Ranbir’s film Barfi, but we’ll have to wait and see how it turns out when it releases in cinemas on April 7, 2017.
