Vedang Raina opens up about the emotional toll of filming jail scenes in Jigra: “It was extremely traumatic”

Actor Vedang Raina is anticipating the release of his new Bollywood film Jigra, which stars Alia Bhatt. He recently discussed the emotional challenges he encountered while filming jail scenes, noting that fully immersing himself in his character had a significant mental impact. In a conversation with Times Now, he said, “It was extremely traumatic. To the point where whenever I think of the time when I was on set shooting for this, especially the jail sequences, I feel like I had become a different human being. I was putting myself through a lot mentally.”

Vedang discussed how he prepared for his role and gave a solid performance in the film. He confessed that he struggled to connect with the emotions required for his portrayal. He stated, “I was, but I also did a lot of prep to get into that headspace because I was dealing with an emotion I’ve obviously never felt before, being in jail and waiting for your death. I watched a lot of documentaries on prisons and death row inmates. I think that helped.”

Meanwhile, the makers have released the trailer. It opens with Alia Bhatt’s character receiving a late-night call about her brother, Ankur (played by Vedang Raina), being arrested. Confused and anxious, she asks if he has done something wrong and whether his blood tests will come back clean. The scene then shifts to Ankur in a courtroom abroad, struggling to understand the proceedings as he is taken into custody.

Determined to help her brother, Alia embarks on a mission to see him. She wonders if hurting herself would persuade the authorities to grant her access, but her requests are repeatedly denied. The trailer showcases her journey to the country where he is held and her fight for his release. It escalates with intense action as Alia performs daring stunts, evading guards and taking extreme risks to save her brother, who is suffering in jail. Despite facing numerous obstacles, she remains resolute.

The film is set to be released in theaters on October 11.

23 Years of Lagaan: “A famous painter heard 'O Paalanhaare' and told me, ‘Tum jhooth bolte ho. Ek atheist aisa bhajan nahin likh sakta’” - Javed Akhtar

One of the greatest films of all time, Lagaan (2001), completed 23 years on June 15. Starring Aamir Khan and Gracy Singh, it was a fictional period drama about a group of villagers learning cricket, a game alien to them, and playing it against the British. In the pre-climax, when the villagers fear defeat, they collectively pray to God. This is when 'O Paalanhaare' is played and it leaves viewers teary-eyed. The song took a life of its own and is one of the most loved film devotional songs of all time. Many are surprised to know that Javed Akhtar, an atheist, penned this track.
