Veteran Bollywood star Anil Kapoor has shared what being an "Alpha" really means and said it has never been about gender.

Anil, whose character in 'Alpha' has so far been completely kept under wraps to protect important plot points, said in a statement: "For the longest time, we've looked at cinema through labels - male lead, female lead, hero, heroine. But audiences have evolved, and so has storytelling. What excites me about Alpha is that it challenges those old definitions."
