Divya Khosla Criticizes Alia Bhatt’s Jigra for Corporate Bookings
Divya Khosla, an actor, recently talked about how some Bollywood movies use a trick called corporate bookings to make their films look more successful than they really are.
She specifically mentioned Alia Bhatt's movie Jigra, saying that the makers bought lots of tickets to make it seem like more people were watching the film.
Divya thinks this is unfair because it tricks the audience and doesn't let other films have a fair chance.
She believes that success should be based on merit, not on who has the most power or money.
Many people in the industry and fans know about this practice, but Divya feels it's important to speak up against it.
Divya Khosla criticized Alia Bhatt's film Jigra for using corporate bookings to inflate box office numbers.
She believes corporate bookings are unfair and undermine merit-based success in Bollywood.
Khosla mentioned that 90% of Bollywood films engage in corporate bookings to boost their collections.
She posted a picture of an empty theatre for Jigra, accusing the makers of fooling the audience.
Despite positive reviews, Jigra failed to perform well during its theatrical run.
