Disappointing Box Office Performance Paves Way for OTT Release
Alia Bhatt’s recent film, Jigra, directed by Vasan Bala, will be streaming on Netflix from December 6th. The film, which also stars Vedang Raina, Manoj Pahwa, and Vivek Gomber, failed to impress at the box office upon its theatrical release during Dussehra.
Jigra faced criticism and controversy, including allegations of plagiarism from filmmaker Divya Khosla Kumar, who claimed the plot resembled her film Savi. Despite these challenges, fans are eager to give the film a second chance on the streaming platform. Many hope that Jigra will receive the recognition it deserves on Netflix, where it can reach a wider audience and potentially garner a more positive reception.
With its OTT release, Jigra has an opportunity to break free from the box office limitations and connect with viewers who may have missed it in theaters or were deterred by the negative publicity.
