In a previous interview with Indian Express, Alia spoke about signing Jigra while being in her ‘protective phase’. “The time when Jigra came to me, I was going through my most tigress, protective phase. It is possibly why I went mad about the material. It really, really spoke to me. Maybe it would have spoken to me prior as well, but it spoke to me very differently. It hit a different chord. Maybe something else must have come out of that. It is not like I can measure or mould that, but motherhood does make a difference,” she said.
Jigra, directed by Vasan Bala, is co-produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions along with Alia Bhatt and Shaheen Bhatt’s Eternal Sunshine Productions.
