Alia Bhatt has finally addressed the underwhelming performance of Jigra, which failed to make a mark at the box office last year. Directed by Vasan Bala, the film starred Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina in lead roles. While Alia received critical appreciation for her performance, the film did not meet commercial expectations, making it one of the least successful ventures of her career. The actress, who had remained silent during the film’s theatrical run, recently spoke about the experience on Jay Shetty’s podcast.

Alia Bhatt finally BREAKS silence on Jigra debacle: “That’s given me a new vigor for a new dream to try”

During the conversation, Alia reflected on her career aspirations and how Jigra’s failure has shaped her perspective. “I’m a very passionate actor, professional, producer. I have dreams with regard to my work, which I don’t think ever end. I don’t think I’m ever comfortable, and I really like that about my mind. I had a film released last year that didn’t do really well, and that’s given me a new vigor for a new dream to try and do over. It’s something I feel very charged by,” she said.

Apart from her professional goals, Alia also spoke about her personal aspirations for the year. She shared, “I think, again, to just soak up as many moments as I can with my family, with my daughter, and, if possible this year, take a solo trip.”

On the work front, Alia Bhatt was last seen in Jigra and is currently filming Alpha, a Yash Raj Films’ spy thriller alongside Sharvari and Bobby Deol. She is also set to star in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love and War, which features Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal in lead roles.
