YRF Spy Universe Finds Its RAW Chief In Anil Kapoor

The actor will reportedly make his franchise debut with War 2, followed by Alia Bhatt's Alpha. Read on to know more.

The YRF Spy Universe, which is being produced by Aditya Chopra, has cast Anil Kapoor as R&AW chief, as per a report on BollywoodHungama. This actor is the latest addition to a stellar cast that includes Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, and Shah Rukh Khan. In the past ten years, Aditya Chopra has built the YRF Spy Universe into a major intellectual property (IP) in Indian cinema by assembling a stellar cast.

Pinkvilla states that Anil Kapoor and YRF Spy Universe have inked a multi-film deal. A source informed the publication that Anil Kapoor was "bowled over" by Aditya Chopra's idea for the Spy Universe and wasted no time signing the contract for the role. It all starts with Kapoor's cameo in War 2, which also stars Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr., and Kiara Advani. After this comes Alpha, which stars Sharvari and Alia Bhatt, and then comes Pathaan 2, which stars Deepika Padukone and Shah Rukh Khan.

Because of his position as R&AW chief, Anil Kapoor will appear in every espionage film in the universe. A number of films are now in production at YRF's creative branch, adding to the ever-expanding YRF Spy Universe. One of these is the much-anticipated Tiger vs. Pathaan, which will pit Salman Khan against Shah Rukh Khan.

What's Next For YRF Spy Universe?

As of this writing, the production of Hrithik Roshan's War 2 is underway. Just hours prior, it was revealed that Roshan Jr. has begun the action-packed second schedule for the Ayan Mukerji directorial, where NTR Jr. is expected to arrive soon.
