Following Shraddha Kapoor’s story lauding the snippet of the movie, ‘Jigra’ director Vasan Bala re-shared it on his Instagram handle. Thanking Shraddha, he wrote, “Thank you Shraddha, hope you and Siddhanth enjoy the film too. And unrelated but I’ll take this opportunity to address – sorry to your fans. Bhool chuk maaf (bow down, scared, teary-eyed, and fingers crossed emojis).” Moreover, Alia also reposted Shraddha’s appreciation post on her handle and penned, “Hahaha thank you, my blockbuster Stree.”
Vasan Bala’s apology comes after the filmmaker forgot to add Shraddha’s name in his appreciation post for Amar Kaushik’s blockbuster ‘Stree 2.’ In his Instagram Stories, Vasan gave a huge shoutout to the film’s team for their remarkable success, mentioning key team members, including actors Rajkummar Rao, Abhishek Banerjee, Aparshakti Khurana, and Pankaj Tripathi. He also praised the film’s director Amar Kaushik, producer Dinesh Vijan, and writer Niren Bhatt. However, he omitted Shraddha from his post. Following this, the actor’s fans criticized Vasan, especially amid the ongoing ‘credit wars’ debate on the internet. While many supported Shraddha’s recognition for the film’s success, others criticized the situation.
Meanwhile, ‘Jigra’ was announced last September with an announcement video. The film will hit theatres on October 11. It is a co-production of Alia Bhatt’s Sunshine Productions and Dharma Productions.
