The teaser showcases intense sequences of Alia running, fighting adversaries, and enduring rigorous training, all while facing overwhelming odds.

Manoj Pahwa appears in a key role as her mentor, urging her to strategize rather than act recklessly. Yet Alia’s character firmly states, “Ab toh Bachchan hi banna hai” (I have to be the hero now), signaling her unrelenting resolve.

Adding to the emotional depth of the teaser, a revamped version of Kishore Kumar’s iconic sibling song “Phoolon Ka Taaron Ka” plays, evoking nostalgia and underscoring the bond between the two central characters.

Alia Bhatt is also co-producing the film under her banner Eternal Sunshine, alongside Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions. Jigra marks her second venture as a producer following 2022’s Darlings.

Originally scheduled for a September 27 release, the film’s debut was pushed to October 11 to avoid a clash with the highly anticipated Devara: Part 1, starring Jr NTR.

With its gripping teaser, Jigra promises to be a powerful cinematic experience that blends heart-pounding action with emotional depth. Fans are eagerly awaiting the film’s release, anticipating another standout performance from Bhatt.
