Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt has joined the formidable Yash Raj Spy Universe’s team along with Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Hrithik Roshan, who have previously given Bollywood some action-packed blockbusters. Today, YRF’s CEO, Akshaye Widhani, disclosed that the actress has been roped in for their yet-to-be-titled film. Bhatt will be headlining the upcoming Spy Universe film, which will begin filming later in 2024.

Widhani also expressed overwhelming excitement about the development as they announced the collaboration. Notably, Alia Bhatt will be portraying a super spy agent, along with Sharvari Wagh. This super duo has already spread a wave of thrills among fans of the action genre.

“I’ll share the worst-kept secret in the industry, which is that Alia Bhatt is headlining a Spy Universe film, and the schedule starts later this year. But talking about this spy universe, we are just so thrilled and excited about having this IP in the studio,” Akshay revealed during the FICCI Frames event.

Akshaye Widhani also added that the ambitious YRF Spy Universe is one of their most prized IPs, and they are looking forward to expanding it more in different aspects. “There’s a lot of stuff that’s going to come in the spy universe. We’re going to see more and more films getting made under it,” the CEO shared while refraining from giving more details on the Alia Bhatt-starrer action entertainer.

The YRF Spy Universe made an impressive name for itself after delivering several blockbusters like Pathaan, Tiger, and War. Renowned for its high-octane action, YRF Spy Universe commenced with Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s franchise film Ek Tha Tiger. It then carried the legacy forward with Hrithik Roshan’s War and Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan. The next in the making is War 2, which is Ayan Mukerji’s directorial venture. It stars Hrithik, Jr. NTR, and Kiara Advani in the lead roles.
