"Jazbaa" is an action-drama film and besides direction, Sanjay Gupta has also penned script for the film in association with Robin Bhatt. The movie has been creating ripples in the media, ever since it was announced. The biggest reason for the huge hype surrounding the film is that it marks the comeback of actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who is returning to acting after being on sabbatical for five years.
Anuradha Verma is a prominent criminal lawyer. Her daughter is abducted and the abductor demands her to defend a rapist and murderer of a young woman to get her daughter released. Her friend Yohan, a suspended cop, comes to help her. The abductor watches every move of hers and makes sure that he is not caught by the police. The prosecutor is a longtime rival of Anuradha and he is determined to defeat her. How she saves her daughter will form the crux of the story.
The audiences, who have watched Jazbaa, say that interesting story and engrossing screenplay are the main highlights of the movie. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has done superb performance in the film, which is a perfect comeback for her. Irrfan Khan and Shabana Azmi's performance are also among the good assets of the film, which has decent production values, add the viewers.

Taran Adarsh @taran_adarsh
Watched #Jazbaa. A captivating thriller with a powerful finale. Slick, stylish & fast-paced, the film's high point is it's taut screenplay. Sanjay Gupta's deft direction uplifts even an ordinary sequence. Aiding him are punch-packed dialogue and superb cinematography. #Jazbaa Aishwarya makes a stunning impact, conveying a gamut of emotions [grief, strong-willed, determined] with aplomb. Finest work so far. #Jazbaa #Jazbaa also boasts of two stellar performances: Irrfan [outstanding] and Shabana Azmi [remarkable]. Two major strengths of this film.
Priya Gupta @priyaguptatimes
Sanjay Gupta's #Jazbaa has not just style but substance. Enjoyed myself watching it. @_SanjayGupta kept me hooked & thrilled till the end. Shabanaji is incapable of any thing short of an outstanding performance. She lifts #Jazbaa and how...@AzmiShabana @_SanjayGupta Was a treat watching #AishwaryaRaiBachchan after her long break. She plays such a lovely mother both on & offscreen #Jazbaa @_SanjayGupta
Devansh Patel @PatelDevansh
Saw #Jazbaa last night & it'll leave a mark on you. It's just the thriller the fans were waiting for. Kudos Team! @_SanjayGupta U can c @_SanjayGupta fingerprints throughout #Jazbaa & the man has finely honed the thriller. A tense, dark, toxic & humorous entertainment @irrfan_k's performance stands on its own in #Jazbaa & shows u that a straight faced guy can also make u laugh in an intense thrill ride. #AishwaryaRaiBachchan in #Jazbaa 'Do not mess with the mother' attitude kicks ass. Her brave act gives the film the ballast it needs. The only bit that scares the shit outta u in #Jazbaa is the psychopathic performance of @SiddhanthKapoor - the man mould like a maniac.

Sanjay Gupta has managed to get a solid supporting cast for #Jazbaa High on drama, lot of unnecessary shots of cars screeching, really over the top dialogues. First half of #Jazbaa is just like its trailer. Some poignant scenes do question society's attitude towards rape victims. #Jazbaa So many scenes look like they have been edited with Instagram filters. #Jazbaa Melodramatic to the core, #Jazbaa scores only because of the performances. Aishwarya Rai grunts and screeches on some scenes but manages to deliver a convincing performance. #Jazbaa does deliver a strong message about how our legal system time and again fails to deliver justice on time. But the dialogues! Oh dear the hilarious over the top dialogues make you lose your concentration from the plot. #Jazbaa

5 Star for preclimax...awesome performance by all #Jazbaa filled with thril and emotions Gosh! Those teary eyes killed me. A different film for aishwarya fans #Jazbaa I cried at climax Aishwarya rai acted superbly executing emotional mother #Jazbaa takes over post interval with lots of drama, action and performance. Aishwarya nailed it in emotional n courtroom scenes #Jazbaa That moment when aishwarya rai hold baby at climax is irreplacable #Jazbaa still cant get over it. Hearttouching #Jazbaa is different film from aishwarya. She looked stunning in ervery frame Overall its a good thriller #Jazbaa Special mention to shabanaji and irrfan for raising the bar #Jazbaa Watch #Jazbaa guys its a good film

RJ @toofilmy
Somehow feel Rani mukherjee would have been the best choice for Jazbaa. Loved the script. Hope justice starts getting served for real SOON. #Jazbaa Irrfan khan can never fail to impress the audience! #Jazbaa @irrfan_k
Junaid Ahmed @Junaid_aahmed
Watched #Jazbaa today, I wasted my time and money. #AishwaryaRai should work in serials now, not in a #Movie.
Sucharita Tyagi @Su4ita
So I just saw #Jazba. Bhai, naa ho paai. Bilkul naa ho paai. #iDontEven #WhatIsThisMovieEven I wish I had something better to say than "Aishwarya Rai looks gorgeous" (which she does, no doubt). #Jazbaa Over the top dramatic acting, dated dialogues and jabardasti ka nakli rona. Sab jazbaat only galat yaar. #Jazbaa
