Alia Bhatt and Sharvari's action thriller, Alpha, has managed to find some breathing room at the box office, thanks to a noticeable uptick on its second Saturday. The film raked in about Rs 2 crore, bringing its domestic total close to Rs 50 crore and giving exhibitors a reason to feel hopeful as the weekend rolls on.
While this recent growth is certainly a positive sign, the overall picture is a bit mixed. The film has successfully drawn in audiences, even though it ventured into a genre that hasn't always been kind to female-led films in India. This alone makes its theatrical journey quite fascinating, even if the final figures might not reflect the scale of the project.

The weekend boost indicates that a segment of moviegoers is still eager to give the film a shot. Positive feedback from viewers and the intrigue surrounding its action-packed storyline have helped it perform better than anticipated during its second weekend. However, the upcoming weekdays will be crucial in determining how much further the collections can climb.

Jul 12, 2026Industry expectations suggest that the film could wrap up its run with a total between Rs 60 crore and Rs 65 crore. While those figures would put it ahead of several recent female-driven releases, they still might not cover the film's reported investment.
Despite the hurdles at the box office, Alpha has ignited discussions for daring to try something different. With a grand production backing and led by two female stars, the film has ventured into territory typically ruled by male action heroes. Even if the commercial results aren't perfect, the effort itself has added a refreshing chapter to the genre.
Now that the Rs 50 crore milestone is within reach, all eyes are on how long Alpha can sustain its momentum before new releases hit the screens. Whether it ends up being a commercial hit or not, the film has demonstrated that audiences are at least open to embracing fresh ideas when they’re presented on a grand scale.
