Alpha Release Pushed YRFs Female-Led Spy Thriller Locks April 17 2026
Yash Raj Films has officially shifted Alpha, the first female-led film in the YRF Spy Universe, to April 17, 2026. Headlined by Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, the high-octane action drama was earlier expected in 2025, but the makers have opted for more time in post-production — mainly to refine heavy-duty VFX work and maintain the franchise’s signature scale.
Alpha is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious films in the spy universe. From large-scale action blocks to high-end digital effects, the scale seems massive, and the studio doesn’t want to rush it. Given the benchmark set by titles like Tiger Zinda Hai, War, and Pathaan, the call makes strategic sense — polish over pressure.
Alia Bhatt and Sharvari headline Alpha, the first female-led chapter in the YRF Spy Universe, marking a landmark shift for the franchise that has so far featured male protagonists like Pathaan, Tiger, and Kabir. The film is said to feature Bobby Deol in a pivotal antagonist role, adding serious star power to the showdown. Principal photography has already been completed, and the team is currently deep into post-production, focusing heavily on action design and visual scale to ensure the film delivers a sleek, stylish spy-action experience. With YRF reportedly determined to “leave no stone unturned” in achieving world-class execution, Alpha is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious projects in the studio’s celebrated spy universe.
Here’s the latest official poster of Alpha as the makers gear up for its big 2026 release
