Will SRK make a smashing cameo in Alia's 'Alpha'?
What's the story
Aditya Chopra, the head of Yash Raj Films (YRF), is planning to feature Shah Rukh Khan in a cameo role in the upcoming film Alpha, reported Bollywood Hungama. The decision comes after the underwhelming performance of War 2, part of YRF's ambitious Spy Universe franchise. Despite this setback, Chopra is determined to keep the momentum going and believes Khan's cameo will help revive interest in Alpha.
