Alia Bhatt to go on board YRF’s next spy universe as super agent
Alia Bhatt is the latest actor to join Aditya Chopra’s spy universe and will now star in a female-led film that will go on floors in 2024.
As per a new development in Yash Raj Films Production House, Alia Bhatt will be boarding the spy universe project. Pathaan was the recent spy universe this year which turned to be a blockbuster.
The next project to roll from the YRF banner would be Salman Khan-led Tiger 3. Amid all these releases, Alia Bhatt has been reportedly roped in to play a spy and headline a big budget spy film which goes on floors next year.
Alia Bhatt, reportedly had once played a spy in Raazi but this role in the YRF film will reportedly feature her in a never seen before avatar. Alia as of now awaits the release of her Hollywood debut “Heart of Stone” in which she is an antagonist. She also has Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani in her kitty.
A source however reveals that the epic spy film the YRF have planned will push Alia Bhatt to the edge.
Alia’s inclusion to the Spy Universe indicates that Aditya Chopra is leaving no audience segment out of the equation. She will be playing a spy in an out-and-out action entertainer, and this will be a big novelty for the audience base that she appeals to. It’s going to be Alia Bhatt like never before.”
The source further added that Aditya Chopra is very bullish on Alia and has big plans for her character arc in his universe. He is looking to start a franchise within the Spy Universe centered around Alia’s character and he will pull all stops to mount the yet untitled film on an.unimaginable scale.
YRF’s spy universe came into existence with Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s 2012 film Ek Tha Tiger, followed by the sequel Tiger Zinda Hai in 2017. Hrithik Roshan joined the spy universe with 2019 film War, which also had Tiger Shroff but his character died in the film.
It was then followed by this year’s Pathaan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham.
Now Tiger 3 is in the works and will project Salman and Katrina again. War 2 starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger vs Pathaan starring Salman and Shah Rukh are also in works.
