Alia Bhatt revealed that she signed her upcoming film Jigra soon after she gave birth to her daughter Raha Kapoor.

During an interview with Forbes, the Bollywood diva recalled the special moment in which she signed her movie.

Bhatt shared, "At the time I signed Jigra, it was just after I had given birth, a couple of months, like 4 months, so I was feeling very protective."

While giving a hint about the possible story of her next project, the Gangubai actress added, "Something about me was feeling… like I was just in Tiger’s mode wanting to protect my cub. So Jigra is all about protecting your loved ones."

In September 2023, Bhatt announced Jigra, which she is also co-producing with Dharma Productions.

In her heartfelt Instagarm post, the 30-year-old actress reminisced her memorable journey with Dharma Productions, recalling her debut as an actor to producing a movie with them.  

She wrote, "Every day is a different day… exciting, challenging (and a little scary)… not just as an actor but also as a producer as we bring this film to life, and I CANNOT wait to share more as we move forward." 

Directed by Vasan Bala, Jigra will hit the big screens on September 27, 2024.
