YRF had initially announced the release date for Alpha as 25th December, 2025. However, it was pushed to April 2026. Later today, it was confirmed that the release date has now been delayed to 10th July, 2026.
The main reason for the delays have been mentioned as VFX works, so the audience can enjoy a much better theatrical release. Another major reason that has been cited is to avoid the box office clash with Salman Khan's much-awaited Battle of Galwan.
