I recently got Alocasia Zebrina. And all of a sudden it leaves have started to droop dramatically. I’m not sure what to do. Help!

Might be overwatered. I see a bunch of water at the bottom with the leca. Was it recently watered in the pic?

Just about anything can put alocasia in dormancy. If it looses all its leaves, cut on the water and wait until spring, where it’ll grow back.
