Concept and controversies

The escape thriller, which also stars Vedang Raina and Manoj Pahwa, is co-produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Alia and her sister Shaheen Bhatt’s Eternal Sunshine Productions. Alia portrays a young woman named Satya Anand in Jigra, who fights to free her tormented brother Ankur Anand from a foreign prison. After Ankur receives a death sentence, Satya promises to free him from prison.

Numerous controversy have surrounded the movie since it was released. Divya Khossla Kumar, an actor and filmmaker, recently said that the movie’s narrative was similar to that of her previous film, Savi. She also claimed that Alia had manipulated Jigra’s box office results. In the meantime, Manipuri-based performer Bujou Thaangjam charged Jigra’s casting crew with acting impolitely. The actor claims that although he was asked to be available in December to come on board for the film, he never heard back.
