Alia Bhatt recalls ‘Jigra’ chaos, nepotism claims
Alia Bhatt’s taking a walk down memory lane. On Saturday, the Bollywood diva posted an old pic with Vasan Bala, director of her flop movie ‘Jigra,’ on her Instagram. “First meeting. Where it all began,” she captioned it. Ah, sweet nostalgia for a project that tanked hard.
Remember ‘Jigra’? It crashed into theaters, directly competing with Divya Khossla’s ‘Savi.’ Critics ripped it apart, and the box office barely registered it. Oh, and don’t forget the drama with Karan Johar over inflated ticket numbers.
Bala stirred things up when he claimed Karan sent his rough script to Alia without letting him fix it. Some thought that was a jab at Bhatt being the second choice. Meanwhile, Alia’s itching to take her daughter to Maasai Mara but says Raha’s not old enough yet.
