How was Alpha Received?
Alpha got mixed reviews after its theatrical release. Some reviewers liked the action and Alia and Sharvari’s performances, while others felt the writing and story were weaker. The Indian Express gave it 1.5/5, while Times of India rated it 2/5.
Now, Alpha gets another chance with its Netflix release as more viewers can watch the YRF Spy Universe film from home.
According to Koimoi’s final figures, the film made about ₹59.29 crore net in India, or ₹69.98 crore gross, while overseas collections were around ₹29.09 crore. That puts its worldwide gross at approximately ₹99.07 crore.
So basically, it came very close to ₹100 crore worldwide but didn’t quite cross it. The film reportedly had a budget of around ₹130 crore, so its theatrical performance was considered disappointing.
