Yash Raj Films’ CEO says, “I’ll share the worst kept secret in the industry, which is, that Alia Bhatt is headlining a Spy Universe film.”
The rumors surrounding Alia Bhatt’s inclusion in the YRF Spy Universe have been put to rest by Yash Raj Films’ CEO Akshaye Widhani, who confirmed the exciting news. Alia is poised to collaborate with Sharvari Wagh in an upcoming film that is yet to be titled. According to reports, they will portray super-agents in this action-packed entertainer.
Announcing the latest update from the YRF Spy Universe during FICCI Frames today, Akshaye remarked, “I’ll share the worst kept secret in the industry, which is, that Alia Bhatt is headlining a Spy Universe film and that the schedule starts later this year. But you know, talking about this spy universe, we are actually just so thrilled and excited about having this IP in the studio.”
He added, “I think the YRF Spy Universe is a financial and cultural juggernaut. And as one of the most prized IPs, we take a lot of pride in it. So there’s a lot of stuff that’s going to come on the spy universe, We’re going to see more and more films getting made under it. But of course, not going to share everything here. But we will talk about it at a more opportune time. But for now, I can just say that Alia Bhatt is headlining a spy universe film.”
Alia is currently preparing for her upcoming movie “Jigra,” directed by Vasan Bala and co-produced by Karan Johar and herself. Scheduled for release on September 27, “Jigra” promises to be an intriguing watch. Director Vasan Bala, known for films like “Monica O My Darling” and “Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota,” is at the helm of this project. The film was announced last September, with its teaser revealing a story of a sister’s unwavering love for her brother. Additionally, Alia will also feature in Farhan Akhtar’s “Jee Le Zaraa,” alongside Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif.
