Alia Bhatt will next be seen in Vasan Bala’s Jigra, which bears uncanny resemblance to Divya Khossla’s film Saavi.
The teaser trailer begins in a seedy and atmospheric bar or restaurant where Alia is gutted and struggles for words as Manoj Pahwa listens to her story. The whole trailer has montages of the actress and what she and her family is going through. And she gives this role her all.
Seeing the teaser trailer, a fan of the actress took a dig at Shraddha Kapoor and Stree 2 and wrote- “doing a 20-30 min role in a multistarrer film is not female centric , this is what female centric actually looks like ..”
The film also stars Vedang Raina, last seen in Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies. While the popular opinion about Vedang pegged him as the new next big thing in Bollywood, the young actor is making sure to live up to those expectations. Right from Jigra’s teaser trailer, Vedang is set to mesmerize his audience not just with a powerful performance but his soulful voice, too.
After delivering box office hits with Stree, Bala and Bhediya, director Amar Kaushik recently delivered an all-time-blockbuster with Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Stree 2. The horror-comedy has crossed the Rs 520 crore mark and is now marching towards the milestone of Rs 600 crore.
