Ayan Mukerji has announced that filming on Brahmastra, starring Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor, has come to an end. The film's director took to Instagram to post photos from the couple's Varanasi shoot and to announce the film's release date. “And finally… It’s a Wrap!"Ayan announced, sharing pictures with Alia and Ranbir from Kashi Vishwanath Mandir temple along with a behind-the-scenes picture from their recent shoot schedule.
The director said, “5 years since we took our first shot on Brahmāstra, and we’ve finally filmed our last one! Absolutely incredible, challenging, once-in-a-lifetime journey!!! Some hand of destiny that we finished the shoot of ‘Part One: Shiva’ in Varanasi - a city infused with the spirit of Shiv Bhagwan, and that too at the most sacred Kashi Vishwanath Mandir, allowing us to finish in an atmosphere of purity, joy and blessings. Exciting days ahead, last lap ahead !"
Ayan also revealed that the film will be released on September 9th this year. Alia also posted a video from the set of the shoot and wrote, “We started shooting in 2018. And now … finally .. The filming of Brahmastra (Part One) comes to an end !! I’ve been wanting to say this for such a long time.. ITS A WRAP!!!!!!!!"
Brahmastra has been postponed for a long time. Alia and Ranbir's first collaboration picture was originally slated for release in 2019 but has been postponed. The pandemic pushed back their schedules even more. To introduce Ranbir's character in the film, the crew published a motion poster back in December. In the film, the actor portrays Shiva. While engulfed by flames, he is shown holding a Trishul. However, Alia's character, Isha, was featured on her birthday earlier this month in the publication of her poster for the film.
Brahmastra is based on Indian mythology, according to Ayan in an interview with Variety.“‘Brahmastra,’ is very inspired by Indian mythology and Indian culture and set in the modern world with modern characters, so in many ways, it is a modern mythology of our own. And in that modern spectrum, Mr. Bachchan plays the role of what Professor Dumbledore is to Harry Potter, or what Gandalf the wizard is to Frodo Baggins — he plays the wise teacher guide, who helps Shiva’s character to actualize his powers and find his destiny," the filmmaker told the international publication.
