Mumbai. Kangana Ranaut’s much awaited film Emergency has not been released yet. At the same time, Alia Bhatt’s film ‘Jigra’ was also released and critics are also praising it. People are calling Alia’s ‘Jigra’ a women-centric film. Kangana has written a cryptic post on this. This post is being considered a sarcasm on ‘Jigra’. The opening of ‘Jigra’, which was released in theaters on October 11, was very poor. According to SACNILC report, it earned around Rs 3.58 crore (net) across all languages in India on the first day.
Given the slow start of ‘Jigra’, Kangana’s post has sparked a new discussion about the box office performance of women-centric films. Without naming anyone, Kangana wrote in her Insta Story post, “When you ruin women-centric films and decide such films don’t work, they don’t work even if you make them. Read it again. Thank you.”
Kangana Ranaut’s cryptic post.
Kangana Ranaut has not related anyone in her post. But looking at the timing of this post, it seems that it is a small sarcasm on the theme of ‘Jigra’ and Alia Bhatt’s lead role in it. Actually, Alia is also the producer of ‘Jigra’. Along with Karan Johar, she is also promoting it by calling it a women centric film. In this film, she is playing the role of a sister who rescues her brother from a foreign jail.
This is not the first time Kangana has taken a dig at Alia. Earlier, before the release of ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’, Kangana had publicly criticized the casting and production of the film, calling it a Rs 200 crore disaster and calling Alia a romantic comedy bimbo. Despite Kangana’s comments, ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ was successful.
