Directed by Vasan Bala, whose previous works include the critically acclaimed film 'Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota,' 'Jigra' promises to be an exciting addition to his filmography. While specific details about the film's plot and cast remain a well-guarded secret, the project's secrecy has only added to the excitement surrounding it.

This film venture also marks Alia Bhatt's second attempt at film production, following the success of her debut production, 'Darlings,' which premiered on an OTT platform in 2022 and received positive acclaim from both critics and audiences. Her decision to step into production highlights her multifaceted talents and her desire to contribute to the Indian film industry in various capacities.

The official announcement of 'Jigra' was made by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions on their official social media page. Their note read, "@aliaa08 is back to put up a courageous fight like no other for her #Jigra! JIGRA, directed by Vasan Bala - releasing in cinemas on 27th September 2024." This collaboration between Alia Bhatt and Dharma Productions has raised the anticipation levels even higher, as they are known for delivering successful and impactful films.

While Alia Bhatt's professional life is on an upswing with the commencement of 'Jigra,' her personal life has been making headlines too. Just hours before her announcement, news broke that her husband, Ranbir Kapoor, had been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for questioning in connection with the Mahadev betting application money-laundering case in Chhattisgarh.

Reports suggest that the ED has accused Kapoor of receiving money from the promoters of the app for promoting their product in the virtual (online) space. Kapoor has been asked to appear at the agency's Raipur office on October 6, and it seems that around 14-15 other celebrities and actors are also under the ED's scanner in the same case.

With Alia Bhatt's 'Jigra' making headlines and her husband's legal situation drawing attention, the Bhatt-Kapoor power couple continues to be in the limelight. While the legal proceedings unfold, fans are eagerly awaiting more updates on 'Jigra' and the chance to see Alia Bhatt in yet another remarkable role on the silver screen.
