Alpha OTT Release Expected on Netflix Following Modest Box Office PerformanceNext

Alia Bhatt and Sharvari's spy thriller Alpha, the first female-led film in Yash Raj Films' Spy Universe, is preparing for its OTT release on Netflix. While no official streaming date has been announced, the film is expected to premiere on Netflix about six to eight weeks after its theatrical debut, possibly around mid-August. Despite strong pre-release buzz, Alpha has underperformed at the box office, with domestic collections totaling approximately Rs 55 crore and worldwide earnings around Rs 92 crore.
