Thaangjam claimed that he was approached to audition for Jigra, and submitted his audition tapes twice across four months, yet he faced a lack of communication and professionalism from the casting team.
In his social media post, Thaangjam shared that after he was informed he would be shooting in December, he cleared his schedule and remained available. Despite dedicating an entire month, he never received firm shoot dates from the production team, which left him waiting in vain. The Manipuri actor stressed the challenges of arranging travel at short notice and communicated his needs clearly to the team, but his concerns were ignored.

Lastly, recent remarks by actress Divya Khosla Kumar comparing Jigra’s storyline to her recent film Savi added fuel to the fire. Additionally, Vedang Raina, a rising star, is expected to feature in the film, further increasing anticipation around the project.
