Alia Bhatt Eyes Comeback With Alpha As YRF Bets Big On Female-Led Spy Film

Alia Bhatt is taking a bold step after the underwhelming box office performance of Jigra, choosing not to play it safe but instead go all-in on Alpha—a high-scale action thriller from the Yash Raj Films Spy Universe. Interestingly, Alia herself has acknowledged that women-led action films have traditionally struggled at the box office, calling them a “tough sell.” Despite that, Alpha is being positioned very differently—with massive scale, franchise backing, and a pure action-driven narrative without romantic subplots. As part of a proven blockbuster universe, the film carries both opportunity and pressure, as it aims to break the pattern and redefine the space for female-led action films in mainstream Bollywood.
