Alia Bhatt choose to do Jigra after becoming a mom

Alia Bhatt is gearing up for her upcoming movie Jigra where she plays the role of a elder sister, trying to protect her brother. On release of Devara:Part 1, during a chat show with Jr NTR and Karan Johar. Alia Bhatt revealed her reason to sign for the film.

Alia said, “When I signed Jigra I think I was in my tigress mode. I was in my most protective- like, ‘No one come near her,’ mode. That was the energy. That is why I always say destiny, luck, life has so much to play in things going a certain way. Forget the fate of Jigra, the fact that it came to me also was… wow what is this timing! That I am feeling this way and it came. It had all of those things laced over it.”

After birth of daughter Raha, Alia has always expressed embracing her motherhood, to which she also spoke about saying, “I don’t think I am the same person. Life has so much more meaning and I think like actors can get really self-obsessed if they are constantly thinking about themselves… Now when there is another being in your life suddenly it is like Alia who? It is Raha, Raha, Raha! Alia comes in and out! The focus is on her and nurturing and my mind always being there is something that will never change now.”
