Bollywood actor Bobby Deol recently shared his excitement about working on the upcoming film Alpha, revealing that he thoroughly enjoyed the shooting experience and had a great time collaborating with actress Alia Bhatt. In a statement, Deol expressed his long-standing desire to work with both Alia and her husband, actor Ranbir Kapoor. "I'm very fond of Ranbir and Alia, and I always wanted to work with both of them. With Ranbir, I did 'Animal', and now with Alia, I have done 'Alpha'. I had the best time working with both of them," he said.
A Refreshing Action Film
Produced by Aditya Chopra under the Yash Raj Films banner, Alpha stars Alia Bhatt and Sharvari in lead roles, with Bobby Deol and Anil Kapoor in pivotal parts. Calling the film a refreshing project, Deol noted, "It is quite amazing that we are making an action film in India, like 'Alpha', featuring two girls doing action on screen. I like 'Alpha' a lot because it is new, it is refreshing, and a new visual for the audience to watch in theatres."
Alia Bhatt's Dedication Praised
The actor also praised Alia Bhatt's dedication and preparation for the physically demanding role. "Alia is one of the most hardworking and sincere actors I've worked with. She comes to the set completely prepared, deeply invested in every scene," Deol said. He added, "She has never done this kind of action before, and I was amazed seeing how prepared she was for the shoot. I could see she was giving her all because action is hard to pull off, and she went for it."
Realistic Action Sequences
Speaking about the film's action design, Bobby credited producer Aditya Chopra and director Shiv Rawail for aiming to create grounded and realistic action sequences. "Adi and the director Shiv Rawail had a clear vision that action should look real and raw. So, it was a tough shoot for both of us, and I'm glad we have a film that everyone should sit back, relax, and hopefully enjoy thoroughly," he said.
