Alia Bhatt, known for her remarkable success streak, faced an unexpected setback last year when Jigra failed to make a mark at the box office. Directed by Vasan Bala and featuring Alia alongside Vedang Raina, the film garnered praise for her performance but struggled commercially, ranking among the least successful films in her career.
Throughout its theatrical run, Alia remained silent on the matter, choosing not to comment on its underwhelming performance.
However, the actress has finally shared her perspective in a conversation on Jay Shetty’s podcast. When asked about her dreams, Alia Bhatt expressed her relentless drive and the unending nature of her aspirations. She stated, “I’m a very passionate actor, professional, producer. I’m passionate about that. I have dreams with regard to my work, which I don’t think ever end. I don’t think I’m ever comfortable, and I really like that about my mind. I had a film released last year that didn’t do really well, and that’s given me a new vigor for a new dream to try and do over. It’s something I feel very charged by. So that’s the professional dream.”
Rather than dwelling on the film’s failure, Alia sees it as fuel for greater ambition. Her response highlights an unwavering commitment to her craft and an eagerness to move forward, proving that setbacks can serve as powerful motivators for new dreams.
