The screenplay is structured as chapters from a comic book; the movie uses a classroom full of kids and their teacher, Shruti (Katrina) as its main storytelling device. Anurag Basu’s unique vision makes this otherwise predictable story thoroughly watchable.The movie lulls when it bends backwards to conform to Bollywood logic. Jagga stumbles into an illegal arms racket and the cat-and-mouse chase between him and an evil intelligence officer (Saurabh Shukla) overburden the second half and push the movie to rushed solutions. He manages to make you laugh and tugs at your heartstrings by being goofy and gloomy as suddenly as required. Saswata Chatterjee’s vulnerability and Saurabh Shukla wickedness balance each other perfectly.Parts of Jagga Jasoos are greater than their sum.
