Jugni (transl. Female firefly) is an Indian romantic musical film written and directed by debutant filmmaker Shefali Bhushan. The movie deals with a music composer who travels to a village in India in search of a golden voice. The term jugni has a double meaning; the term is usually used to connote a female firefly, while in Punjabi folk music, it refers to a narrative device in which an outside observer comments with humorous or sad remarks on occurring events.
The film is a traditional musical composed by Clinton Cerejo and consists of singing contributions from several Indian film composers including Vishal Bharadwaj and A.R. Rahman.[1] The film was distributed by PVR Pictures and released nationwide in India on January 22, 2016.[2] It has been selected to be shown at several film festivals, including the London Indian Film Festival, the Indian Film Festival, the Hague, the Avvantura Film Festival, Zadar, the River to River Indian Film Festival, the FOG Festival, the USA, and others.
