<i>Jigra</i> Review: Alia Bhatt Does Full Justice To The Film
Box Office India Trade Network

JIGRA had a dull second week with collections being only 6.50 crore nett which takes the film to almost 28 crore nett. The drop in the second week is 70% and this is without any competition. Also, it is a film which is targeted to a niche audience and should at least be holding better than a film like VICKY VIDYA KA WOH WALA VIDEO

The year has been littered with so many films just targeting the the handful of bigger centers and this includes bigger films like MAIDAAN and KHEL KHEL MEIN. JIGRA is just another addition to the list as these films go heavily wrong in either treatment or characterization or both.

The film has scored better in overseas as its looking like a $3 million finish which is 25 crore as here the star factor has worked better than it has in India. A market like UK will do similar numbers to a film like SHAITAAN and BADE MIYAN CHOTE MIYAN, which released on Eid, a very good period in UK. The Gulf numbers are also pretty good but the film should have scored better in US since its a film for the gentry and niche audience.
