Alia Bhatt’s latest release, Jigra, has faced disappointment at the box office, grossing just Rs 20 crores so far. Despite high expectations and her star power, the film has struggled to find its audience. Co-produced by Karan Johar and Alia herself, Jigra was made on a significant budget of Rs 80 crores, making its current performance a major setback.
Alia Bhatt, one of Bollywood’s top actresses, reportedly charged a hefty fee of Rs 15 crores for her role in the film, a substantial amount for a female lead in the Indian film industry. However, this high investment hasn’t paid off as the film continues to underperform.
Directed by Vasan Bala, Jigra also stars Telugu actor Rahul Ravindran in a pivotal role and Vedang Raina as another lead. Despite being an action drama with a solid cast, the movie has failed to capture the audience’s interest, leaving its box office fate uncertain.
