Alia has replaced Deepika in the YRF's Spy Universe film: Reports
He added, "I think the YRF Spy Universe is a financial and cultural juggernaut. And as one of the most prized IPs, we take a lot of pride in it. So there's a lot of stuff that's going to come on the spy universe. We're going to see more and more films getting made under it. But of course, not going to share everything here. But we will talk about it at a more opportune time. But for now, I can just say that Alia Bhatt is headlining a spy universe film."
While he didn't mention whether it was the same project that Deepika Padukone was going to headline or not.
However, netizens are of the view that Katrina would have been a better choice, as Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone have been the faces of films made under the YRF spy universe, like Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, Pathaan, and Tiger 3. With Alia stepping in as lead for the spy universe film, netizens thought that Katrina would always remain the face of YRF's spy universe films.
