Dharma Productions has been struggling of late as majority of its films have underperformed at the box-office. The rising overheads seems to have pushed KJo to sell the 50 per cent of stakes of the company which his father Yash Johar founded. Prior to this, Karan engaged in a public spat with actress-director Divya Khossla, a day after the release of Jigra when Divya took to the Stories section of her Instagram, and shared a picture of an empty theatre running the show of Jigra.
She had shared how theatres are witnessing practically zero footfalls for Jigra. She wrote in the picture, “Went to Citi Mall PVR for Jigra show. Theatre was totally empty … all theaters going empty everywhere. #Aliabhatt me sach mein Bahut #Jigra hai, khud hi tickets karide aur fake collections announce kar diye. Wonder why paid media is silent #weshdnotfooltheaudience #truthoverlies #HappyDussehra”. However, Divya seemed in no mood to buy the collections as she felt that the collections of the film are fabricated at the behest of the production house behind Jigra which is considered one of the premier film studios in Hindi cinema.
