Hrithik Roshan
, who enthralled audiences as the suave and formidable
Agent Kabir
in the 2019 blockbuster War, is all set to make a cameo appearance in the upcoming spy thriller Alpha. Directed by Shiv Rawail, Alpha features
Alia Bhatt
and
Sharvari
in lead roles, marking the latest addition to Yash Raj Films’ ever-expanding spy universe which features names like Shah Rukh Khan as Pathaan,
Salman Khan
as Tiger and Katrina Kaif as Zoya.
Hrithik’s character, Kabir, was last seen in War, where his intense rivalry and eventual camaraderie with Tiger Shroff’s character, Khalid, kept audiences on the edge of their seats. His cameo in Alpha is expected to tie in various storylines from other films within this shared universe, which also includes movies like Ek Tha Tiger and Pathaan, thus creating an enviable crossover.
In Alpha, Alia Bhatt and Sharvari play high-stakes intelligence agents, tasked with taking down a global threat; and joining them would be
Bobby Deol
and Anil Kapoor.
While details of Hrithik’s role are being kept under wraps, his appearance is rumored to come at a pivotal moment in the film, possibly setting the stage for a larger crossover in future installments. Fans are eagerly anticipating seeing Hrithik’s Kabir back in action, even if it’s just for a cameo, as his character remains one of the most loved in the spy genre of Indian cinema.
A source close to the development shares that Hrithik would be shooting for his cameo over a couple of days. He is currently caught up with the shooting of War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji which also stars Kiara Advani and marks the Hindi debut of Jr. NTR.
