Alia Bhatt and Sharvari-starrer Alpha, the latest instalment in Yash Raj Films’ Spy Universe, has made a steady start at the Indian box office on its opening day. As per live estimates by trade analysts, the film has crossed a net collection of Rs. 4.48 crore while running across 5,535 shows nationwide. The gross Indian collection currently stands at Rs. 5.29 crore, with the final Day 1 figures yet to be reported. The film’s collections are expected to see further growth as the day progresses.

A review shared by a netizen on X praised Alpha, highlighting its performances and action. According to the reviewer, Alia Bhatt and Sharvari deliver impressive performances that stand out, while the action sequences are described as decent enough. The biggest highlight, however, is Hrithik Roshan’s cameo, which the reviewer called fantastic and one of the film’s most memorable moments.

Another user wrote, “A short appearance but an important one,” highlighting Hrithik Roshan’s entry in Alpha as one of the key moments that sets the stage for what’s next in the YRF Spy Universe. Hrithik Roshan, known as Kabir in the previous installment of the franchise, remains one of its most beloved characters. His expected cameo is likely to strengthen the connections between the different films while expanding the overall storyline of the universe.

Alpha brings together several ingredients of a blockbuster entertainer while earning distinction as the first female-led film in the YRF Spy Universe. Alia and Sharvari, the two lead actors, bring a fresh perspective to the expanding cinematic universe. Instead of functioning as supporting characters, they drive the story from beginning to end. The decision to build the film around two women represents a notable evolution of the franchise and reflects Bollywood’s growing interest in large-scale, female-led action entertainers.

Fans are calling Alpha bigger, bolder and more action-packed than ever, with the film’s stylish visuals and thrilling spy mission generating huge excitement. They have described it as a stylish, larger-than-life commercial entertainer packed with adrenaline-pumping action and say it is tailor-made for the big screen, delivering the cinematic spectacle audiences expect.

Some viewers also praised Sharvari’s performance, calling her one of the film’s promising highlights. Fans feel the actress delivers a confident screen presence and makes a solid impact in the spy action drama.
