Bollywood actress Sharvari Wagh has addressed comparisons between herself and her ‘Alpha’ co-star Alia Bhatt.
After gaining recognition for her roles in films like Munjay and Maharaj, Sharvari has been receiving praise, with some suggesting she might be the next Alia Bhatt. However, in a recent interview with an Indian media outlet, Sharvari expressed that she doesn’t aspire to be the next Alia Bhatt; instead, she wants to be recognized for her own unique identity.
“I am certainly inspired by Alia Bhatt because whenever I watch her films, I know they will be exceptional and her performances will be compelling, making us see the character rather than just Alia,” Sharvari shared.
While acknowledging her admiration for Alia as an inspiration, Sharvari emphasized her desire to forge her own path and hoped that one day, people would look up to her as an example in their own right.
Sharvari Wagh shared that her goal in acting is to portray a diverse range of characters on screen. She views it as a compliment when people recognize her from a role she played in a film.
Her latest project is Vedaa, where she stars alongside John Abraham. Directed by Nikhil Advani and written by Aseem Arrora, the film also features Tamannaah Bhatia, Abhishek Banerjee, Ashish Vidyarthi, and Kshitij Chauhan in prominent roles.
Sharvari will also be seen as a super agent alongside Alia Bhatt in Alpha, directed by Shiv Rawail. Veteran Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor joins the cast as the mentor to Alia and Sharvari’s characters.
This upcoming film represents a notable shift in YRF’s spy universe, which has traditionally focused on male leads supported by strong female characters.
