Jigra Box Office Collection Day 5: Alia Bhatt's Film Struggles To Reach Rs 20 Crores

Alia Bhatt's latest film, Jigra, directed by Vasan Bala, has been making headlines. The movie features Alia in a unique role alongside Vedang Raina, Sobhita Dhulipala, and Manoj Pahwa. Released on October 11, Jigra has generated significant buzz with its trailer and songs. The film is one of the year's most anticipated releases.

Jigra marks Alia's first collaboration with Vedang Raina, where they portray siblings. The story follows Satya (Alia Bhatt) as she embarks on a challenging journey to rescue her brother Ankur (Vedang Raina) from a foreign jail. The film highlights the strong bond between siblings, with Alia delivering an impressive performance.

The film opened to decent reviews and earned Rs 4.55 crores on its first day. However, after a promising weekend, collections dropped significantly on the first Monday. According to Sacnilk, Jigra collected Rs 1.65 crores on day four, bringing its total earnings to Rs 18.25 crores.

Currently, Jigra is facing tough competition at the box office from Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video starring Rajkummar Rao and Triptti Dimri. Both films have received mixed reviews, but Jigra has yet to surpass its competitor in earnings. It remains to be seen if Alia's film will gain momentum in the coming days.

As per early updates for day five, Jigra is struggling at the box office during its first week. By 7:27 PM today (first Tuesday), the film had earned Rs 99 lakhs. This brings Jigra's total collection to Rs 19.24 crores as it approaches the Rs 20 crore milestone.

The ongoing trends suggest that Jigra may continue to face challenges at the box office this week. Despite initial excitement and anticipation surrounding its release, the film's performance has not met expectations so far.
