Ranbir Kapoor gives an update on ‘Brahmastra 2’
Ranbir Kapoor gave his fans a big update about ‘Brahmastra 2’. He spoke to his fans in a live event, which found its way to the ‘Reddit’ page ‘Bolly Blinds N Gossip’. In the clip, the actor shared that ‘Brahmastra 2’ is ‘heavy into writing’ and that Ayan Mukerji has ‘gone 10 times bigger than part 1’.
In the clip that was shared on ‘Reddit’, Ranbir was seen confirming that ‘Brahmastra 2’ is very much in the development stage. He said, “So, ‘Brahmastra 2’ is heavy into writing. We are working on it all the time. It was just last week that Ayan narrated the film to me. Ayan has gone 10 times bigger than part 1 with his ideas, thoughts and characters. He is working on ‘War 2’ right now, so the plan is to finish ‘War 2’ by mid-next year and we start shooting hopefully by the end of next year or the beginning of next year. But definitely, there’s a lot of work which is already happening on the film in the writing process.”
Ranbir also addressed the criticism that part 1 received and said further, “We have really understood the kind of criticism we got for the film. What worked for it and what didn’t work for it? So, we want to take everything into consideration. From the dialogues or people saying that Shiva and Isha’s chemistry was somewhere missing... There was a lot of criticism that was constructive, so we are taking that into our stride and trying to understand that and kind of go beyond that.”
‘Brahmastra’ starred Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. The movie marked the beginning of a big-budget fantasy adventure franchise. ‘Brahmastra’ follows Shiva (Ranbir), who sets out on a journey to find the origins of his special powers with Isha (Alia), a woman he falls in love with at first sight.
The film, which earned over Rs 400 crore at the worldwide box office, was one of the major commercial successes of the Hindi film industry during the pandemic. In April this year, Ayan announced that the two sequels of ‘Brahmastra’ will be ‘bigger and more ambitious than Part 1’.
