Summary
- Aditya Chopra re-strategizing to revive YRF Spy Universe after War 2 underperformance
- Alia Bhatt and Sharvari to lead next chapter 'Alpha' in Christmas 2025 release
- Aditya Chopra secures Shah Rukh Khan cameo in 'Alpha' to reignite the franchise
As of October 25th, 2025, Aditya Chopra is re-strategizing to revive the YRF Spy Universe after the underperformance of War 2. The next chapter in the franchise, 'Alpha' led by Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, and also starring Bobby Deol and Anil Kapoor, is already shaping up to be crucial in regaining momentum.
Recognizing the impact a cameo can have, Chopra has reached out to Shah Rukh Khan, requesting him to make a special appearance as Agent Kabir in 'Alpha'. The goal is for Pathaan, the most talked-about character in the Spy Universe, to reignite interest and lead into a potential Pathaan 2. Shah Rukra Khan is currently considering the request, as he has allotted bulk dates for his upcoming film 'King'.
If the cameo materializes, Chopra is also hoping to secure a similar appearance by Salman Khan as Tiger. However, the writing for that is still in progress. 'Alpha' is directed by Shiv Ravail and is set for a Christmas 2025 release, aiming to revive the fortunes of the YRF Spy Universe.
