Jigra Producer Bats for Alia Bhatt Amid Buzz She Wasn’t the First Pick, Jokes “We Were Practically Begging Her…”

So, doston, you’re in for a treat with some spicy Bollywood masala today! Grab your popcorn as Khabree Kiran dives into the latest news swirling around our beloved Alia Bhatt and the much-anticipated film, Jigra. Buckle up because this one’s a rollercoaster! 🌟

Rumor alert, folks! The grapevine is buzzing louder than a Mumbai street at peak hour. Alia Bhatt’s name is being tossed around like a hot potato—was she or was she not the first pick for Jigra? While some naysayers are busy playing detective, the film’s producer has stepped in to drop some truth bombs. Suna aapne? Alia’s production house, Eternal Sunshine Productions, teamed up with Bollywood’s guru, Karan Johar, to bring this action-drama to life, all under the direction of Vasan Bala. But hold your horses, there’s more to the story!

Vasan Bala, spilling the beans in a candid chat on Tried And Refused Productions’ YouTube channel, expressed his ‘gussa’ (anger) over KJo sending Alia the script faster than you can say "Jai Mata Di." Is this a case of Bollywood privilege or just some good ol’ Bollywood drama? Enter Somen Mishra, our knight in shining armor, to clear the air. According to him, Vasan was simply miffed because the script was not fully cooked before it landed on Alia’s plate. Arre bhai, the industry runs on half-baked ideas sometimes! 😅

Now, Mishra ji took to X, sharing his musings and setting the record straight. He exclaimed, “Hahahaa this appeared on TL. This is so funny… Matlab, who wouldn’t want Alia? She’s a superstar!” He further elaborated on the industry’s quirks where scripts are pitched, actors show interest, and then who knows—it’s a game of musical chairs!

And there you have it, friends! The team was ‘dying’ to have Alia on board, and frankly, who can blame them? With her magic on screen, imagining anyone else in the role seems like a filmi nightmare. 🎬

Director Vasan Bala also chimed in, praising KJo’s instincts for having Alia lead the charge. Meanwhile, the film’s release is just around the corner, with Vedang Raina sharing the spotlight with Alia.

Kiran’s Gyan: In Bollywood, there are three constants—gossip, drama, and Alia Bhatt being fabulous! Remember, in the world of glitz and glamour, every rumor has a dozen versions, but Alia’s talent? That’s the real deal, bhai! 😎
