Shah Rukh Khan's Cameo Buzz As Pathaan Sparks Excitement For Alia Bhatt's Spy Universe Film Alpha

Mumbai, October 25 - The YRF Spy Universe continues to evolve, and the next chapter, Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt, Sharvari Wagh, and Bobby Deol, is shaping up to be bigger than expected after the latest cameo buzz of Shah Rukh Khan took the internet by storm. According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, producer Aditya Chopra of Yash Raj Films has approached Shah Rukh Khan to reprise his iconic role of Pathaan for a special cameo appearance in Alpha. It is said that this decision comes after the studio was reportedly taken aback by the poor result of War 2, which was released recently. In an effort to amplify the buzz and strengthen the cinematic continuity of the Spy Universe, Chopra is keen to bring back SRK's Pathaan to add star power and connect the dots between the existing characters. Chopra has reportedly designed a special cameo for SRK, which will lead to Pathaan 2, the next film in the Spy Universe after Alpha. However, Shah Rukh Khan has reportedly asked for some time before making a final decision. Interestingly, Alpha, which is scheduled to release on December 25, 2025, will also feature Hrithik Roshan in a cameo as agent Kabir, marking another major crossover moment for the franchise. If SRK comes on board, Alpha could become the most interconnected YRF Spy Universe, paving the way for an eventual ensemble crossover film. With Alia Bhatt leading the charge as the first female spy of the universe, and potential appearances by both Pathaan and Kabir, Alpha is already generating immense excitement among fans.

Mumbai, October 22 "” Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa's romantic drama Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat is emerging as one of the biggest surprises of the year at the box office. After taking a better-than-expected start, the film is holding impressively well on its second day, showing that audience word of mouth is turning in its favour, while having the festive advantage. As per early estimates, Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat has collected around 7"“8 crores net on Day 2, following its solid 9 crores net opening day.

Mumbai, October 22 "” Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna's vampire horror comedy Thamma is maintaining a good grip at the box office after a solid opening day. The Maddock Films release has managed to hold well on its second day, continuing to benefit from the Diwali festive period. According to early estimates, Thamma collected 17.50-18.50 crores net on Day 2, showing a decent hold after its impressive 24 crores net opening.

Thamma vs Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat: Ayushmann Khurrana and Harshvardhan Rane Starrers Light Up Box Office With 40 Crore Gross Post-Diwali Day

Mumbai, October 22 - Unlike 2024, Bollywood didn't witness a high-profile clash this Diwali, yet there were enough fireworks at the ticket windows to light up the box office. Ayushmann Khurrana's vampire comedy Thamma, which is part of Maddock's expanding horror-comedy universe, faced unexpected competition from Harshvardhan Rane's romantic drama Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat. Despite belonging to entirely different genres, both films managed to draw audiences post-Diwali, resulting in a collective box office gross of around 40 crore. While Thamma attracted family crowds and youth with its quirky premise and humour, Deewaniyat found love among urban audiences for its music and emotional storytelling. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, Thamma, which also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, carried good pre-sales and opened on the expected lines. The 5th movie in Maddock Horror Comedy Universe grossed approximately 28.75 crores (24 crores net) on its opening day, which is the second biggest start in the MHCU, behind Stree 2. The real surprise, however, was Deewaniyat, which opened to better than expected collections. The success of Rane's Sanam Teri Kasam re-release earlier this year seems to have worked in the actor's favour, as the movie grossed approximately 10.75 crores (9 crores net) on its post-Diwali day. The opening of Deewaniyat is easily the biggest for Rane, who, otherwise, doesn't have much in the box office menu to showcase. The initial reception for the film, however, is on the mixed to negative side, though it is expected to score decently with the holiday period still going on. Overall, it was a good day at the Hindi box office with nearly 50 crores gross collection, as other movies contributed to around 10 crores gross, including Kantara Chapter 2, which minted around 5 crores gross on the day. But, going forward, focus will be on Thamma and Deewaniyat on how they perform and make the most of the holiday frame. Stay tuned...
