Jackky Bhagnani

Jackky Bhagnani (born 25 December 1984) is an Indian actor, film producer and entrepreneur who works in Hindi cinema. He is the son of producer Vashu Bhagnani and founder of the Indian music label Jjust Music.

Jackky Bhagnani was born in Calcutta, West Bengal to a Sindhi family. He is the son of producer Vashu Bhagnani and Pooja Bhagnani. After completing his schooling, he graduated with a Bachelors in Humanities from the H.R. College of Commerce and Economics, Mumbai. He had also completed an acting course from Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute.[citation needed]

Bhagnani's debut film was Kal Kissne Dekha, which released in 2009. The movie received mostly negative reviews and was unsuccessful at the box office. Taran Adarsh, of Bollywood Hungama, wrote that "The film lacks the fun that one normally associates with a campus fare. Even the climax leaves a lot to be desired."

In April 2011, he starred in F.A.L.T.U. The film received mixed reviews and was a moderate well at the box office. In May 2015, Bhagnani revealed that a sequel to the movie has been planned.

In 2012, his third film Ajab Gazabb Love was released, but was unsuccessful at the box office.

In 2014, he starred in Rangrezz, directed by Priyadarshan. It received positive reviews from critics and featured Bhagnani dancing to Psy's "Gangnam Style". The rights to the song were bought by Bhagnani's father Vashu Bhagnani, also the producer of the film, for an undisclosed sum. Despite this, the film failed at the box office.

Bhagnani's next film was Youngistaan, a love story set against the backdrop of Indian politics. Released in 2014, the film was panned by critics and was a commercial failure.

The film later became the subject of much controversy when it was revealed that it was India's independent entry to the Oscars. Twitter was abuzz with jokes on Bhagnani, with users expressing surprise and dismay over the movie's selection.
