Seems like Vasan Bala is very much done with all the trolling. The director and his recent release Jigra has been the subject of a lot of criticism, and to stay away from all of it, Vasan has chosen to stay a little off the social media.&nbsp;

Days after facing trolling for defending Jigra's box office number, Bala has now deactivated his X account.&nbsp;

Bala's handle on the micro-blogging&nbsp;site was active a few days ago. However, on Saturday (Oct 20), some&nbsp;users spotted that Bala's posts had&nbsp;disappeared. However, the director didn't post anything before deactivating his X account. So it's unclear what was the exact reason behind deleting his X account, and whether he would be returning or not.&nbsp;

Bala's movie Jigra has been the&nbsp;target of trollers, who are bashing the movie over several things like fake box office&nbsp;numbers, nepotism with producer Karan favouring Alia Bhatt for the role and plagiarism among other things. The movie's poor box office performance has also become a major point of discussion.&nbsp;

Defending the box office collection of the movie, Vasan told The Hollywood Reporter India in an interview that he was surprised by the film's failure.

He said, "The surprise was the failure because you obviously don’t set out to fail. Also, this was not a very stubborn, I-will-only-deliver-it-this-way kind of film. I thought it was a pretty accessible, straight-arrow film, and the emotions were universal."

In the same conversation, Bala said that he felt that he let down both Karan Johar and Alia Bhatt.&nbsp;

He said, "I do feel it. I feel it majorly. I mean, they are supremely supportive, and there is no ounce of letting me feel like this. It is something that I have to grapple with."

The movie has also been accused of plagiarism, with actor Divya Khossla Kumar saying that Jigra is a copy of her movie Savi. However, the director refrained from commenting on the allegations, saying that he didn't want to add more fuel to it by commenting.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, Jigra has seen a further drop in the second week of its release. As per Sacnilk, the movie has earned Rs 23.6 crore.

Vasan Bala deactivates X account after Alia Bhatt's Jigra box office debacle

It seems that&nbsp;Divya Khossla Kumar has a bone to pick with Alia Bhatt. The former has accused the latter of&nbsp;rigging the box office numbers for her latest release Jigra. Sharing a picture of an empty cinema hall on her official Instagram handle,&nbsp;Divya said that actors should not "fool the audience". She even accused Alia of buying the film's tickets herself to inflate box office numbers.

Divya wrote, "Went to Citi Mall PVR for Jigra show. Theatre was totally empty … all theaters going empty every where."

"#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," she added.

The post comes amid chatter around similarities between Divya's movie Savi and Jigra, since both the films are about jailbreaks. In Savi, Divya plays the role of a housewife who is trying to break her husband out of a prison in England. The husband, played by Harshvardhan Rane, has been accused of murder.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, in Jigra, Alia's character tries to rescue her brother out of prison after he has been found in possession of drugs.&nbsp;

Directed by Vasan Bala, Jigra also stars Vedang Raina as Alia Bhatt's brother. The film has been co-produced by Alia under her banner Eternal Sunshine Productions and Karan Johar's Dharma Productions.
