Alpha Box Office Collections: Alia Bhatt, Sharvari starrer spy film has a respectable first day

The film 'Alpha', starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, recorded a respectable opening day at the Indian box office despite mixed reviews. While the earnings fell short of covering production costs, the film performed better than expected given the recent struggles of the YRF Spy Universe franchise.
Why it matters
The performance of female-led action films in India is a significant metric for the evolving landscape of the Bollywood box office and franchise sustainability.
Alpha put up a respectable opening at the Indian box office, collecting Rs. 8.50 crore nett approx on its first day. While the number is not good enough for the film's costs, it is comfortably ahead of pre-release expectations and has come despite the mixed-to-negative reception it has received post-release.
