Netizens come out in support of Divya Khossla Kumar
Divya's fans have flooded X for pointing out the discrepancy in the box office numbers despite the empty theatres. A user called Divya "brave" and wrote, "Omg ....Divya Khosla Kumar just pulled back the curtain on the intense PR tactics behind Alia Bhatt 's film #Jigra."
Another wrote, "Love how these queens are exposing the fake stardom of Alia Bhatt . Nepo baby kab tak bachegi?"
What did Divya Khossla Kumar post?
On October 12, a day after the release of Jigra, Divya Khossla Kumar, married to the T-Series Chairman Bhushan Kumar, took to her Instagram Stories and dropped a note for the Alia Bhatt starrer. The actress shared that she had gone to watch a film in a theatre which was “totally empty”. Divya added that Alia Bhatt announced a fake collection of her film after buying tickets for the shows herself.
Her note reads, "Went to Citi Mall PVR for Jigra show. The theatre was totally empty … all theaters going empty every where. #Aliabhatt me sach mein Bahut #Jigra hai.. khud hi tickets karide aur fake collections announce kar diye ( Alia Bhatt has some guts to buy tickets of her own film and then announce fake collections). Wonder why paid media is silent. #weshdnotfooltheaudience #truthoverlies #HappyDussehra Х (sic).” Her post comes amid reports of Jigra being a copy of Divya starrer Savi.
Savi is said to follow the same jailbreak story as that of Alia’s Jigra (the only difference being in Savi, the titular character played by Divya carries out the prison break of her husband, and in Jigra, Alia takes her brother out of the prison).
