"Jai Gangaajal" is an action drama film, which is a sequel of the 2003 crime film "Gangaajal". This female-centrice movie is about SP Abha Mathur, who is appointed the first female SP of Bankipur district in Bihar. The flick is all about how she goes against the Bankipur MLA and the henchmen of Lakhisarai district.
The viewers say "Jai Gangaajal" is predictable in the beginning and has a dragging narration in the first half of the movie. The story picks up the moment at the interval and the second half is very interesting and engrossing. The climax is also good. Overall, the movie makes a decent watch, but it is not upto its prequel.
Priyanka Chopra has played the protagonist role as SP Abha Mathur and she has delivered wonderful performance, which is the highlight in "Jai Gangaajal". Filmmaker Prakash Jha has made his acting debut and he has proved his mettle as an actor. Manav Kaul, Rahul Bhat, Ninad Kamat, Ayush Mahesh Khedekar, Murli Sharma, Vega Tamotia and others have done justice to their roles, say the viewers.
"Jai Gangaajal" has rich production values. Salim-Sulaiman's music, Sachin Krishn's cinematography, Prakash Jha's script and punch dialogues and well choreographed action scenes are the big attractions in the technical front, the viewers say in their verdict shared on Twitter. We bring you some of their unique comments. Here is the live update of "Jai Gangaajal" movie review by audience:

#HagguSingh says that #JaiGangaajal doesn't belong to this era. Prakash Jha is hero of the film & he has done good job. He has powerfull 1/2 @priyankachopra as supporting cast is good and has done full justice to #abhamathur. #PC fans will be disappointed.
