Jigra box office collection day 1: Vasan Bala’s Alia Bhatt-starrer has taken a slow start at the ticket windows but would hope to improve on Dussehra. Jigra, the emotional-action roller-coaster from Vasan Bala, was released in theatres this Friday. The film, which stars Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina, has polarised critics, with many praising it and others seemingly not impressed at all. The film’s box office performance on its opening day reflects this mixed mood, with a lukewarm response from the audience despite the festive season.
Jigra Box Office
Jigra made ₹4.25 crore net in India on its first day of business, according to Sacnilk. The majority of these profits come from the Hindi version of the movie. The Telugu-titled version only brought about ₹5 lakh. According to information acquired by Sacnilk, a few Telugu dub morning shows in regions like Warangal and Nizamabad displayed 0 occupancy. The producers must be dissatisfied with this statistic because Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Rana Daggubati attended a lavish function to promote the Telugu version of the movie. The creators of the movie, Alia Bhatt among them, are hoping that the Dussehra celebration and good word-of-mouth will boost the numbers. The movie has received a lot of great feedback from viewers, who especially praised Alia’s performance. According to industry experts, in order for the movie to have any hope of a respectable lifetime run at the box office, it must show a 30–40% bump on Saturday. The opportunity is provided by the Dussehra holiday.
What is the purpose of Jigra?
Jigra, which was directed by Vasan Bala, tells the touching tale of the relationship between a brother and a sister, portrayed by Vedang Raina and Alia Bhatt, respectively. In the movie, Satya (Alia) goes to a despotic nation in East Asia in order to save her brother Ankur (Vedang) from prison. Ankur is on death row due to questionable drug trafficking allegations, so time is of the essence during this entire period. Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Alia’s Eternal Sunshine Productions are the co-producers of the movie.
