Satya lost her parents when she was young and became the main caretaker of her younger brother Ankur. After being taken in by his distant relatives, the Mehtas, Satya starts working for them to support Ankur.
When Ankur gets an opportunity to pitch his tech idea to an investor, he teams up with Kabir, son of the Mehtani family. However, Kabir’s business trip to the Southeast Asian country goes awry when he is caught with drugs. The Mehtas trick Ankur into taking the blame for Kabir, who has a past of drug problems.
Worried about his brother, Satya Bhatia, a retired gangster, and Muthu, an ex-cop who regrets his past mistakes, hatch a plan to free their boys from prison.
It is a battle between right and wrong that is driven by Satya’s determination to save her brother.

FAQs: Frequently Asked Questions
Jigra, which was eagerly awaited, despite being made on a budget of ₹80 crore, did not fare well at the box office, earning only ₹25.35 crore in nine days.
Jail in Jigra is not based on a real place. The filmmakers created a country called Hanxi Dao, where drug trafficking is punishable by death. With just three months left for Ankur to face execution, Satya must act fast.
Jigra is a film that beautifully portrays the importance of family. Alia Bhatt’s performance is amazing, which showcases her superb acting skills. Vedang Raina also gives a strong performance as Ankur, and their sibling bond is the heart of the story.
