'Alpha' trailer out: Alia Bhatt, Sharvari go up against Bobby Deol, Hrithik Roshan surprise at the end?
Mumbai, June 17
Actors Alia Bhatt and Sharvari have raised excitement around 'Alpha' after the makers finally unveiled the official trailer of the upcoming action thriller, offering a deeper look into the film's story and introducing fans to the journey of a young assassin in the YRF Spy Universe.
The two-minute-and-thirty-four-second film opens with Bobby Deol's character naming Alia Bhatt's character Sita after her mother, Janaki. Through Sita's voiceover, the narrative draws on the tale of a princess who was abducted by a demon, only to rewrite her own destiny by fighting back instead of waiting to be rescued.
As the trailer progresses, it shifts into high-octane action with Alia leading several combat sequences and chase scenes.
Sharvari makes a striking entry as a woman Sita initially struggles to trust, but the two gradually join forces as they take on a dangerous mission. The preview hints at a growing partnership between the characters as they confront a powerful enemy.
Anil Kapoor also appears in a major role, adding another layer to the story, while Bobby Deol is seen as the film's chief antagonist. The trailer builds towards what appears to be a grim climax before ending on a cliffhanger with the reveal of a mysterious man whose identity has been deliberately kept under wraps. Fans speculate that the character may be portrayed by Hrithik Roshan. However, the trailer offers only a fleeting glimpse of the enigmatic figure, revealing nothing more than his striking green eyes in the final shot.

Love the mythological reference of Sita rewriting her destiny! Finally Indian cinema is giving us female characters who don't need saving. Sharvari's entry looks promising too. 🙌
Did anyone else notice the release date is 2026? That's ages away! And they already changed it multiple times. Hope the delays mean they're perfecting the VFX and action sequences. Bobby Deol as villain is always a treat.
Alia Bhatt in a spy universe role? I'm here for it! But honestly, I'm tired of these multi-film universes copying Hollywood. Make a good standalone film first. Still, will watch for Sharvari and Anil Kapoor.
As a fan of the YRF Spy Universe since Ek Tha Tiger, I'm excited but nervous. The female-led concept is great, but will it have the same mass appeal as Pathaan or War? That green-eyed cameo better justify the hype.
The trailer looks slick, but I'm concerned about the over-reliance on action choreography. The Sita metaphor is interesting though - drawing from Indian mythology for modern storytelling. Curious to see how Shiv Rawail handles such a big budget film after The Railway Men.
