Jigra Vs Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video: The Alia Bhatt headliner hit the big screens on October 11 coinciding with the Dussehra holiday. The movie has hit the big screens alongside Triptii Dimri-Rajkummar Rao starrer Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. However, a viral photo now shows theatres running empty for the Vasan Bala directorial.

Jigra theatres in empty theatres?

Jigra advance bookings opened a few days before the film's release. However, the collection remained sub-par and the film has not been able to attract audiences to theatres. A screenshot of a ticketing app going viral online shows all shows available with several seats available.

The screenshot has been circulating online widely. This comes amid accusations that Alia Bhatt 's casting in the movie was driven by nepotism. Social media reviews have also claimed that the film is ‘slow’ and lacks entertainment for the masses.

Alia Bhatt accused of corporate bookings

Alia Bhatt starrer Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani and Gangubai Kathiwadi ran into trouble in the past for allegations of corporate bookings. Makers of the film were accused of inflating box office collections and making false corporate bookings to show an increased interest in the film.

The same has happened with Jigra. Social media users have been sharing screenshots of ticketing apps that show sporadic bookings in theatres. A user shared a screenshot and wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Whoever made the corporate booking... Dude, you could have used a bit of common sense” Anther mentioned, “Corporate booking queen is  back #jiga”.

Alia Bhatt headlines the film Jigra which also features Vedang Raina. Directed by Vasan Bala, the film tells the tale of sibling bond.
