This work explores the influence of double diffusion over thermally radiative flow of thin film hybrid nanofluid and irreversibility generation through a stretching channel. The nanoparticles of silver and alumina have mixed in the Maxwell fluid (base fluid). Magnetic field influence has been employed to channel in normal direction. Equations that are going to administer the fluid flow have been converted to dimension-free notations by using appropriate variables. Homotopy analysis method is used for the solution of the resultant equations. In this investigation it has pointed out that motion of fluid has declined with growth in magnetic effects, thin film thickness, and unsteadiness factor. Temperature of fluid has grown up with upsurge in Brownian motion, radiation factor, and thermophoresis effects, while it has declined with greater values of thermal Maxwell factor and thickness factor of the thin film. Concentration distribution has grown up with higher values of thermophoresis effects and has declined for augmentation in Brownian motion.
