‘Alpha’: YRF shifts release date of Alia Bhatt starrer

Yash Raj Films’ highly-awaited action entertainer Alpha, headlined by Alia Bhatt, will release on April 17 next year.

The VFX of Alpha need more time to present the movie in its visually best shape to audience, the company said.

The film, which was earlier slated to release in December this year, pairs Bhatt with Sharvari. Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol also star in pivotal roles. Alia and Sharvari will go toe to toe against Bobby in the movie.

Alpha is an extremely special film for us and we want to present the film in its most cinematic self. We have realised that the VFX will take a little longer than what we had initially assumed. We want to leave no stone unturned to make Alpha into a theatrical experience for everyone to cherish. Thus, we will now release the film on April 17, 2026,” a YRF spokesperson said in a statement.
