Alpha Box Office Collection: YRF spyverse’s latest release hit the big screens on July 3. Directed by Shiv Rawail, the movie features Alia Bhatt and Sharvari in the lead roles. The film opened to a mixed to negative response from cinegoers and critics alike. The muted word of mouth has translated into its opening at the box office.
Alpha enjoyed a solo release on July 3. The movie clashed with Huma Qureshi’s Baby Do Die Do, which received a much smaller showcase. The only competition for the Alia Bhatt starrer is Akshay Kumar’s Welcome To The Jungle.
Released on 7534 screens, Alpha collected ₹9.25 crore on the first day at the box office. This is the lowest opening among all YRF spyverse movies so far. The 2017 release Ek Tha Tiger opened to ₹32.9 crore, Tiger Zinda Hai (2018) raked in ₹34 crore on day 1, and Hrithik Roshan’s War (2019) collected ₹53.35 crore. Even post-pandemic releases performed better. Pathaan (2023) opened to ₹57 crore while Tiger 3 (2023) raked in ₹53 crore, as per Sacnilk.
