"7 days to go": Alia Bhatt drops intense new 'Alpha' pics ahead of release
Mumbai, June 27
As the days count down to the release of 'Alpha', actor Alia Bhatt has unveiled fresh stills from the upcoming action thriller, giving fans another glimpse of her fierce on-screen avatar.
With just a week left before the film arrives in cinemas, the actor shared two new images from the YRF Spy Universe film on social media.
Alia shared pictures along with a caption that read, "7 days to go. #Alpha releasing in cinemas from July 3." The pictures feature the 'Raazi' actor in an intense action-ready look, continuing the promotional campaign for the film ahead of its theatrical release.
Fans, in no time, chimed in the comment section to express excitement about watching Alia in a full-fledged action role. One user commented, "The countdown has officially begun. Can't wait to watch Alia own the big screen," while another wrote, "7 days to go! So ready to watch Alia redefine what a female action hero looks like."
The new stills come days after the makers released the official trailer of 'Alpha'.
The trailer introduces Alia's character, Sita, whose name is given by Bobby Deol's character in reference to her mother, Janaki.
The trailer also showcases several large-scale action sequences led by Alia, while Sharvari appears as a mysterious woman whom Sita initially struggles to trust before the two join forces for a dangerous mission.
Anil Kapoor is also seen in a pivotal role, while Bobby Deol plays the film's primary antagonist. The trailer ends with a brief glimpse of a mystery character, whose identity has not been revealed, prompting speculation among fans that it could be Hrithik Roshan. Only the character's green eyes are shown in the closing moments.
Directed by Shiv Rawail, 'Alpha' is the first female-led film in the YRF Spy Universe. The film stars Alia Bhatt and Sharvari and is set to release in cinemas worldwide on July 3, 2026.

Hrithik cameo? That green eyes tease is definitely him! YRF knows how to build hype. But I hope the action sequences don't rely too much on VFX. Real stunts with Alia would be epic.
Bold move making a female-led spy film in India. Alia and Sharvari together? Count me in! But I hope the story is strong, not just gloss. Some of these spy films get too formulaic. 🤞
Sharing on WhatsApp with friends! The trailer gave me goosebumps. Alia's intense look is something new for her. And Bobby Deol as villain? He's been killing it lately. July 3 can't come soon enough! 💥
Nice to see Bollywood expanding its spy universe with female leads. The trailer looks slick. Hope the writing matches the action—Indian cinema needs more well-rounded female roles.
People are hyping this too much. Let's see if it delivers. Alia is talented but action isn't easy. Hope they've trained her well. Don't want another overhyped film that flops. 🤷♂️
The countdown is real! I loved Alia
