Anil Kapoor said that ‘Alpha’ can change the definition of leadership and hero in Indian cinema. Alia Bhatt and Sharvari will be seen in powerful action avatars in the film.
Actor Anil Kapoor, who has played many powerful and influential characters in his long film career, believes that the era of such films is now beginning in Bollywood, which are moving ahead of traditional thinking. He is very happy that a large-scale action entertainer like the film ‘Alpha’ has been made, in which two actresses like Alia Bhatt and Sharvari are at the center of the story. This is a genre which has been dominated by male artists for a long time.
Anil Kapoor’s character in the film has been kept a complete secret.
The information regarding the role in which Anil Kapoor will be seen in the film ‘Alpha’ has been kept completely confidential. The makers do not want to reveal important secrets of the story before the release. However, while sharing his thoughts about the film, Anil Kapoor said that now times have changed and the choice of the audience is also not the same as before.
He said that for a long time, films were seen in categories like male lead, female lead, hero and heroine, but today’s audience gives more importance to good stories and strong characters. According to him, the biggest specialty of ‘Alpha’ is that it tries to break these traditional boundaries.
Being ‘Alpha’ is not a gender, it is a sign of personality and courage.
Anil Kapoor says that the word ‘Alpha’ has never been associated only with men or women. According to him, it symbolizes self-confidence, strong personality, courage and the ability to take the story forward. He said that today’s audience also connects with such characters who show leadership and influence. Now people don’t look at whether the lead character is male or female, but look at who has the most commanding presence on screen.
There is a need for different thinking films for the new generation.
Anil Kapoor is confident that ‘Alpha’ will give a new cinematic experience to the audience. He believes that today’s audience comes to the theater with the expectation of seeing something new and different. In such a situation, giving command of a big action mission to two female characters is a fresh and bold step for Indian cinema.
Expressed pride in daughters, supported strong stories of women
Anil Kapoor said that as a father, he is proud that both his daughters have always supported films and stories that break stereotypes and create new opportunities for women. He said that he is sure that his daughters are also very excited about ‘Alpha’, because such films can add a new chapter to Indian action cinema.
‘Alpha’ will create a new definition of hero
Anil Kapoor believes that ‘Alpha’ can change the way we look at heroism and leadership in Indian cinema. He said that now the time has come when instead of asking whether the lead character is male or female, it should be asked who is the real ‘Alpha’. According to him, this thinking is very important and the need of the hour for Indian cinema and he is proud that he is a part of a film which is taking this change forward.
The future of cinema is at stake
Concluding his talk, Anil Kapoor said that the cinema of the future will not depend on who gets the opportunity of leadership, but on whether the need to define leadership on the basis of gender ends.
