Jigra Movie Review: Alia Bhatt & Vedang Raina’s brilliant performance in a truly immersive film

Vasan Bala’s Jigra is an emotional saga which talks about sibling bonding and to what extent an elder sister can go to save the life of her little brother. A truly dedicated elder sister who is more like a mother and the only support system, Alia Bhatt has nailed the role of Satya with her brilliant craft. It is her doggedness that makes the film engaging.

Jigra brings back the fond movies of the nineties which depicted the brother-sister bond in commercial movies and that being the central theme. But this film has got much more finesse and newness in it, considering it is a Vasan Bala film who knows how to think differently. Not denying that the film is mostly unrealistic, but isn’t that what big screen action films are all about. Jigra is one such film which shows how special sibling bonding can be. The backstories of the main characters are beautifully weaved in the story.

The movie shows Satya’s ( Alia Bhatt) determination to free his younger brother Ankur (Vedang) from jail who was wrongly imprisoned. Staya and Ankur are two orphans and they were brought up by a rich distant relative. Ankur was pronounced death by electrocution on false charges in a foreign land.

In this foreign land there is no mercy for drug abuse. He was wrongly accused  and was made to say that he was consuming drugs to save the life of his foster father’s son. A bright engineer, Ankur (Vedang) falls into the trap. Throughout the film, Vasan Bala takes us back to the young Jigra, the bond that Satya (Alia Bhatt) and Ankur (Vedang) shared with each other. And not just Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina, both  Manoj Pahwa and Rahul Ravindran does justice to their roles
