Also starring Vedang Raina and Manoj Pahwa, the escape thriller is co-produced by Alia and her sister Shaheen Bhatt's Eternal Sunshine Productions and Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. In Jigra, Alia plays a young woman, Satya Anand, who struggles to save her brother Ankur Anand, who is being tortured while being imprisoned in a foreign jail. Satya pledges to break Ankur out of prison after he is sentenced to death.

Since its release, the film has faced a number of controversies. Actor-filmmaker Divya Khossla Kumar recently commented that the film resembled the plot line of her last film, Savi. She had also accused Alia of manipulating the box office numbers of Jigra. Meanwhile Manipuri-based actor Bujou Thaangjam accused the casting team of Jigra of unprofessional behaviour. According to the actor, he was asked to be available in December to shoot for the movie, but never received a follow-up call.
