Fake Jigra Box Office Collections By Alia Bhatt?? Divya Khossla Kumar Slams Alia Bhatt
Amid the ongoing Alia Bhatt controversy with Divya Khossla over their films Savi and Jigra, Divya has taken the feud to the next level by accusing Alia of inflating Jigra box office numbers. Divya shared a photo of an empty theater on Instagram, claiming that the screenings of Jigra were barely attended.
She wrote, “Went to Citi Mall PVR for Jigra show. Theatre was totally empty … all theaters going empty everywhere. #Aliabhatt me sach mein Bahut #Jigra hai.. khud hi tickets karide aur Jigra fake collections announce kar diye. Wonder why paid media is silent. #weshdnotfooltheaudience #truthoverlies #HappyDussehra Х (sic).”
Divya sarcastically hashtagged “Sach Mein Bahut Jigra Hai,” implying that Alia Bhatt has the courage to face the truth. She accused Alia of purchasing tickets herself to create Jigra fake collections.
The controversy deepened after Divya acknowledged the similarities between her film Savi and Alia’s Jigra. Savi, starring Harshvardhan Rane and Anil Kapoor, is about a housewife’s daring attempt to break her husband out of a high-security prison in England, while Alia’s Jigra focuses on a similar plot involving a prison break to save her brother.
Divya addressed this, saying, “Yes, I too have been getting this question a lot from the media, the industry, and the trade that Savi and Jigra are seeming very similar, the plot and everything. Well, I would just like to say that with the love of the audience and the grace of God that Savi has proved its worth totally on its own merits. We had a very good run in theatres and OTT too and we topped the charts in various countries. And even though Jigra may be similar, I feel every film has its own journey.”
This Alia Bhatt controversy surrounding the alleged Jigra fake collections has captured attention, with both stars standing their ground amidst the unfolding drama.
