Brahmastra: Due to the ongoing pandemic, filming had to be halted on a number of films, delaying the release of some highly anticipated flicks. Brahmastra, directed by Ayan Mukerji, has also had its release date pushed back, but the cast has returned to the sets to finish filming. According to Way2OTT, Actor Nagarjuna Akkineni, who has a significant role in Brahmastra, has wrapped filming and sent his goodbyes to the cast and crew via social media.
As filming of Brahmastra nears completion, here’s all you need to know about the Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer.
1. Brahmastra is a fantasy film series directed by Ayan Mukerji. Leading parts will be played by Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Ranbir plays a superhuman male named Shiva, and Alia plays a woman named Isha.
2. The film also has Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna Akkineni, Mouni Roy, and Dimple Kapadia in addition to Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Speculation has it that Mouni will play the film’s primary antagonist. Certain information about the other actors’ roles has been kept secret.
3. The name of the film is based on the name of Lord Brahma’s weapon from Hindu mythology. Ayan Mukerji has previously told a news website, “It’s a modern-day film based in India as it exists today.
4. Nonetheless, the film gets its name, “Brahmastra,” because all of the film’s energies, wisdom, and powers originate in ancient India. Really, that’s all I can think of to add. It’s possible that some costumes will appear, albeit they might not take the form you anticipate.
5. Brahmastra’s official logo was unveiled during the 2019 festival of Mahashivratri. At Kumbh, on the holy day of Mahashivratri, 150 drones unveiled the brand.
6. Brahmastra was set to premiere on December 4, 2020. The announcement was announced on social media by Alia Bhatt, Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, and Ayan Mukerji. Nonetheless, the release date was pushed back because of the continuing coronavirus pandemic. A new release date for the film has not been announced by its creators.
7. Brahmastra began filming in Tel Aviv, Israel, that year. The filming has moved to Mumbai.
Seven languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam, will be available for the Ayan Mukerji-directed film’s premiere.
8. The film starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt is being funded by Karan Johar’s Dharma Production.
9 Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s on-screen romance is the first time the two have worked together.
What is Ranbir Kapoor’s Character in Brahmastra?
The film’s male star, Ranbir Kapoor, portrays Shiva, an entity bestowed with the power of fire, the most potent Astra in the Astraverse. Because he is the fire Astra and not like the other Astras, he is a wonderful miracle in the Astraverse.
Near the end of the film, Ayan explains why the main character is called Shiva. As a believer and devotee of Lord Shiva, he explained, he felt compelled to give Ranbir’s character that name. Ayan has stated that among all the gods, he feels closest to Lord Shiva, who he describes as being both mysterious and all-powerful.
Production on Brahmastra lasted for four years.
Brahmastra, which had formerly been much anticipated, came dangerously close to being forgotten on more than one occasion. The involvement of Ranbir and Alia has kept the project in the public eye. It was said that they began dating during filming and eventually tied the knot. Sanju, starring Ranbir, became a huge box office success during this time, with revenues of more than Rs 300 crore.
With the movie’s commercial success, the actor was suddenly thrust into the spotlight. Raazi, Gully Boy, and most recently, Gangubai Kathiawadi, are just a few of Alia’s box office successes. Many people will be curious to see if the film can maintain the pair’s momentum at the box office.
Brahmastra VFX
The same Indian studio that worked on the Oscar-winning Dune also created the visual effects for the epic fantasy film Brahmastra. Incredible visual effects for Brahmastra were created by Prime Focus, an Indian studio that took home an Oscar for its work on the film Dune at the 94th Academy Awards. Apparently, the visual effects for Brahmastra were created in a studio in Mumbai.
Prime Focus’s prior work includes visual effects for the films Inception, Interstellar, Avatar, and Tenet. Baahubali, Baahubali 2, and RRR all had their visual effects created by the same studio.
