Alpha has found another admirer in Kareena Kapoor Khan. The actress recently took to social media to share her thoughts after watching the Alia Bhatt and Sharvari-led spy thriller.
Posting about the film on her Instagram Stories, Kareena praised the project and gave a special shoutout to its leading ladies, adding to the growing wave of celebrity appreciation surrounding the action entertainer. Meanwhile, although Alpha has garnered mixed reviews from fans and critics since its release, its female-led action and performances by Alia Bhatt and Sharvari have emerged as widely appreciated aspects.
Kareena Kapoor praises Alpha
On July 4, Kareena Kapoor Khan took to her Instagram Stories to cheer for Alpha and its leading ladies. Sharing the film’s poster, she wrote, “Killing it @aliaabhatt @sharvari Love seeing women front and centre in action film. Here’s to girl power.” She also tagged Yash Raj Films, Bobby Deol, and Anil Kapoor in the post.
Kareena’s review comes shortly after filmmaker Karan Johar also threw his weight behind amid its mixed reception. While Johar praised the film’s theatrical appeal, Alia Bhatt’s star power and urged audiences to look beyond “online negativity,” Kareena celebrated the film for putting women at the forefront of the action genre.
Plot of Alpha
Alpha follows Sita (Alia Bhatt), an elite assassin raised by Colonel Fateh (Bobby Deol) under the clandestine Alpha program, a top-secret initiative aimed at creating genetically enhanced super-soldiers. After discovering she was kidnapped as a child and manipulated into becoming a weapon, Sita turns against her mentor and uncovers the truth about her biological family.
She reunites with her father, RAW chief Vikrant Kaul (Anil Kapoor), and her estranged twin sister, Durga (Sharvari), to stop Fateh’s dangerous “Operation Odyssey.” Packed with high-octane action, emotional family drama and espionage, the film marks the YRF Spy Universe’s first female-led chapter, with Hrithik Roshan’s Major Kabir making a special appearance during the climactic mission.
Alpha box office collection
Alpha has opened to a strong start at the box office, collecting over on Day 1 despite facing skepticism and mixed pre-release buzz. The Alia Bhatt-led YRF Spy Universe film has exceeded expectations, indicating that audience interest outweighed the online negativity surrounding it.
The action thriller performed particularly well in key markets such as Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Ahmedabad, with the final opening-day figures expected to inch higher once the official numbers are announced by Yash Raj Films.
