Talking about Jigra, then the movie is arriving in the theatres on October 11th, 2024, and is produced by Alia’s own production house Eternal Sunshine Productions banner in association with Dharma Productions. Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra are co-producing this slice-of-life, high-on-emotion drama.
In the motion poster of Jigra released during the movie’s announcement, Alia’s animated character was seen standing in the middle of a road amid heavy rains and the voiceover in the background was heard saying, “Dekh, dekh mujhe. Meri rakhi pehenta hai na tu, tu meri protection mein hai. Tujhe main kuch nahi hone dungi, kabhi bhi (Look at me, you are wearing my rakhi, you are in my protection. I will not let anything happen to you, ever).”
In a note attached alongside, Alia wrote how having debuted with Dharma and now producing a movie with them feels like life coming full circle for her. “Every day is a different day… exciting, challenging (and a little scary)… not just as an actor but also as a producer as we bring this film to life, and I CANNOT wait to share more as we move forward,” she added.
Other than Jigra, Alia Bhatt will be next seen leading YRF’s first women spy film Alpha alongside Sharvari. She will then star in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War alongside Vicky Kaushal and Ranbir Kapoor.
