Alia Bhatt’s Jigra jumps by over 50% on Saturday | Telugu Movie News
Over the past 12 years, Alia Bhatt has proved her mettle as a confident and competent actor in the Hindi Film Industry. She has been one of those rare female actors who can carry a film solo on her shoulders, be it Raazi or be it Gangubai Kathiwadi. It was the success of these films that gave her the confidence to attempt Vasan Bala and Karan Johar’s Jigra. However, the film failed to find a connection with the audience, and has been struggling at the box office.
