If Alpha opens within the estimated Rs 5-7 crore range, it would become the lowest opening-day performer in the YRF Spy Universe.
Here is how previous films in the franchise performed on their first day in India (net collections):
Ek Tha Tiger – Rs 32.92 crore
Tiger Zinda Hai – Rs 34.10 crore
War – Rs 53.35 crore
Pathaan – Rs 57 crore
Tiger 3 – Rs 44.50 crore
War 2 – Rs 52.50 crore
Compared to these blockbuster openings, Alpha faces a challenging start. However, industry experts believe that a strong storyline, impressive action sequences, and positive audience feedback could still help the film build momentum over the weekend.
