Jigra, directed by Vasan Bala and starring Alia Bhatt, Vedang Raina and Manoj Pahwa, couldn’t lure the audience much at the box office. The limited appeal coupled with mixed word-of-mouth curtailed its business to a major extent. 

Jigra earns Rs 4.60 Crore in 2nd Weekend, surpassing Rs 25 crore mark

After collecting an underwhelming Rs 21.95 crore in its first week, the Alia Bhatt starrer added Rs 4.60 crore in its second weekend and surpassed the Rs 25 crore mark in India. 

The movie entered the 2nd week by minting Rs 1 crore on Day 8, followed by Rs 1.70 crore on Day 9 and Rs 1.90 crore on Day 10. The total cume of Jigra has reached Rs 26.55 crore net in its 10 days at the Indian box office. 

Jigra performs well overseas, crossing Rs 50 crore mark worldwide

While Jigra remained underwhelming in the domestic markets, the Vasan Bala-directed movie is doing well in the international markets. The prison-break action-drama has grossed more than USD 2 million overseas in 10 days of its release. The total box office collection of Jigra currently stands at Rs 50 crore gross globally. 

The movie remained the 2nd most preferred choice among Dussehra releases after Rajkummar Rao’s Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. The movie still has some legs to maintain its grip until the Diwali releases, Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 arrive. It is expected to close its theatrical run somewhere around Rs 35 crore net in India and Rs 100 crore worldwide gross. 

Though the movie might have a favourable theatrical run, the makers had already signed a good non-theatrical deal to make it a profitable venture.

Watch the Jigra Trailer

Andrew Scott has always impressed with his charming yet intimidating screen presence. The Irish actor, born on October 21, 1976, has taken on some eye-opening roles in both movies and series, and he recently turned 48. He once opened up about a role that truly terrified him.

Scott is well-known for his portrayal of Jim Moriarty in Sherlock, but he also took on the role of Tom Ripley in the Netflix miniseries Ripley. While this performance is considered one of his most chilling, it was also one of the most challenging for the 1917 actor.

Appearing on an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Andrew Scott divulged that for more than 15% of his on-screen time, playing the titular character, he had to speak authentic Italian. 

In the April 5, 2024, episode, All of Us Strangers actor Andrew Scott described the role of Tom Ripley as “genuinely terrifying,” noting that it required him to be “good at speaking Italian.”

He elaborated, saying, “So, I’m an Irishman playing an American speaking Italian, but I’m also an Irishman playing an American imitating another American, speaking Italian.”

Portraying Tom Ripley in the Netflix series was “a lot” for Scott, who admitted that it was a matter of “one’s own pride” to ensure he got it right.
