Yash Raj Films’ latest spy thriller Alpha came out to a mixed response, and now social media is getting loud about the storyline. It’s got that YRF Spy Universe energy, people were hyped, but somehow the buzz has turned into comparisons too, with many viewers saying it feels similar to Dhurandhar.

A major point of talk is Bobby Deol’s character arc, where the plot leans on a Pakistani operative who infiltrates the Indian Army and climbs the ranks, slowly but surely. A bunch of moviegoers have said the premise reminds them of Dhurandhar, where Ranveer Singh’s character slips into a Pakistani gang as an undercover spy, that parallel has not gone unnoticed.
Because of that, reactions online started stacking up, some users saying Alpha feels a little too close to the recent blockbuster, like same rhythm same core idea. Still, these are basically audience perceptions, and the makers havent replied, at least not publicly.
Social Media Reacts
On the whole, reviews across social media are kind of split. Some viewers are calling Alpha one of the weaker entries in the YRF Spy Universe, while others are urging the studio to spend more effort on fresher narrative angles as it keeps growing the franchise.
Even with the noise, Alpha is still among the most discussed releases of the year, and honestly, how the box office moves in the next few days will decide whether the online chatter sticks, or just fades out.
