Alia Bhatt has returned to the big screen with her movie ‘Jigra’ and has been seen in an action-drama for the first time. The movie has been showing an underwhelming performance at the box office despite receiving good reviews. See the box office collection of ‘Jigra’ in its first weekend. 

Jigra Box Office Collection Day 3: 

According to the website Sacnilk, ‘Jigra’ collected Rs 5.65 crore on day 3 as per early estimates. The movie earned Rs 6.55 crore on its second day (Saturday) and its Sunday collection has a significant decline. ‘Jigra’ has collected Rs 16.75 crore in total. 

Meanwhile, ‘Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video’ clashed with ‘Jigra’ at the box office but has earrned more than Alia Bhatt-starrer. The movie has earrned Rs 18.65 crore in total. 

Apart from Alia Bhatt, ‘Jigra’ also stars Vedang Raina in the lead role. The movie is directed by Vasan Bala. In an interview with Times Now, Vedang called Vasan Bala a ‘brilliant’ director. He said, “He is so easy to work with. He is very creative on set and things change with the flow of the day, which took time to get used to but I love that process of shooting. Yes, his previous films were a bit different. There was always humour to fall back on. Jigra is still quirky in its own ways but it revolves around a strong emotional core. He’s just brilliant with everything he does though.”

The movie revolves around an elder sister on a mission to rescue her brother from jail as he gets sentenced to death.  

On the work front, Alia was last seen in ‘Hearts Of Stone’. She will next star in ‘Love & War’ with Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal.
