Sharvari On Headlining Alpha With Alia Bhatt: 'I Remember She Messaged Me Right After...'

Alia Bhatt’s co-stars have collaborated with Imtiaz Ali for Main Vaapas Aaunga, also featuring Diljit Dosanjh. While Alia was seen playing Vedang Raina’s older sister in Jigra, she will soon be headlining Alpha with Sharvari. In a recent chat, Sharvari and Vedang opened up about what it was like for them to work with Alia Bhatt.

Sharvari told SCREEN, “Actually, we (Vedang and Sharvari) did speak a lot about Alia. Both of us are really fond of her. She is an incredible human being first and foremost, and a brilliant actor. I am always in awe of Alia, and have been a huge fan of hers. To be able to just work with her, share screen and headline a film like Alpha means the world to me. To just be in the same space and be able to learn from her is an invaluable

experience.”

“She is a real cheerleader. I remember she messaged me right after Main Vaapas Aaunga was announced, saying, ‘I am so excited that you and Vedang are doing Imtiaz sir’s film at this time in your career. When you are exploring yourself, and you are new, the best director is Imtiaz sir; he will help you in this discovery.’ I didn’t understand what she meant then, but I do understand what she meant now,” the actress.

Vedang Raina mentioned, “I think, even Imtiaz sir, and whoever has an experience of working with her, they always leave with such a good feeling. That’s what we have also spoken about. That you leave feeling like she is such a lovely person. Acting, of course, you know it’s Alia Bhatt, but you leave feeling like she is such a good person at heart. She makes you feel important, loved, and she goes out of her way to take things into her own hands.”

Meanwhile, as for Main Vaapas Aaunga, produced by Birla Studios, Applause Entertainment and Window Seat Films, the film is slated to release in theatres on June 12, 2026. Besides Sharvari, Vedang and Diljit, the film will also feature Naseeruddin Shah. Music for the film has been released under Tips Music.
