Alpha box office: Alpha has finally made its big-screen debut after weeks of anticipation. The action thriller is the first female-led stand-alone movie in the YRF Spy Universe, starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari.

Supported by Yash Raj Films, the film got off to a decent start at the box office, with early collections starting to come in as Day 1 went on. The makers started advance booking for Alpha on Wednesday. However, the movie witnessed a slow start.

According to Sacnilk’s early estimates, Alpha is now running about 2,547 shows and has earned a net of ₹1.03 crore as of day 1. With India’s final collection still pending, this increases the country’s total gross collections to ₹1.22 cr and its total net collections to ₹1.03 cr so far.

By the end of Thursday, Alpha had sold close to 70,000 tickets, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. With blocked tickets, these bookings helped the movie earn an early gross of about ₹2.26 crore. It is predicted that the Alia Bhatt-starrer will generate roughly ₹8-10 crore on its first day.
