Alia Bhatt marks first wedding anniversary with UNSEEN mushy pics; fans shower love

<p>For all those who loved Ayan Mukerji's <em>Brahmastra</em> and were curious to know the origin story, there is news. Mukerji is planning to make the <em>Brahmastra Part 2: Dev</em> and <em>Brahmastra Part 3</em>. The director made the announcement of his two new projects on social media on Tuesday. The director stated that a movie franchise is an opportunity that challenges and excites him and that the script of both films will take time to develop. The first film starred Ranbir Kapoor as Shiva and Alia Bhatt as Isha. It also featured Amitabh Bachchan and Dimple Kapadia in key roles.&nbsp;<br />
The first part hit the big screens in September 2022 and was touted as one of the most expensive Hindi films ever. Now, Ayan has revealed how<em> Brahmastra Part 2 </em>and <em>3</em> will release in the theatres closer to each other's release dates.</p>

<p>Ayan Mukerji shared the official update on his Instagram handle as he penned a long note about the sequels.&nbsp;<br />
"Hi. &nbsp;The Time has come - for some updates on the Brahmastra Trilogy, the Astraverse, and my Life! After absorbing all the love and the feedback on Part One... I have been focused on creating the Vision for Part Two and Part Three -which I now know will be bigger and more ambitious than Part One! I have learnt that we need a little more time to perfect the script of<em> Brahmastra Two </em>and <em>Three."</em></p>

<p>The filmmaker added, "And...I have decided that we are going to make the two films... Together! Allowing them to also release closer together! I have a timeline in place to achieve this, which I am sharing with you all today! ik I also have another piece of news to share... The Universe has presented me with a very special opportunity recently - a very special movie - to step into and direct! What the movie is... More on that when the time is right :)."<br />
<br />
<em>Brahmastra Part Two: Dev</em> will be releasing in cinemas in December 2026 while the third and final part of the film franchise will release the following year, in 2027.</p>

For all those who loved Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra and were curious to know the origin story, there is news. Mukerji is planning to make the Brahmastra Part 2: Dev and Brahmastra Part 3. The director made the announcement of his two new projects on social media on Tuesday. The director stated that a movie franchise is an opportunity that challenges and excites him and that the script of both films will take time to develop. The first film starred Ranbir Kapoor as Shiva and Alia Bhatt as Isha. It also featured Amitabh Bachchan and Dimple Kapadia in key roles. The first part hit the big screens in September 2022 and was touted as one of the most expensive Hindi films ever. Now, Ayan has revealed how Brahmastra Part 2 and 3 will release in the theatres closer to each other's release dates. Ayan Mukerji shared the official update on his Instagram handle as he penned a long note about the sequels. "Hi. The Time has come - for some updates on the Brahmastra Trilogy, the Astraverse, and my Life! After absorbing all the love and the feedback on Part One... I have been focused on creating the Vision for Part Two and Part Three -which I now know will be bigger and more ambitious than Part One! I have learnt that we need a little more time to perfect the script of Brahmastra Two and Three." The filmmaker added, "And...I have decided that we are going to make the two films... Together! Allowing them to also release closer together! I have a timeline in place to achieve this, which I am sharing with you all today! ik I also have another piece of news to share... The Universe has presented me with a very special opportunity recently - a very special movie - to step into and direct! What the movie is... More on that when the time is right :)." Brahmastra Part Two: Dev will be releasing in cinemas in December 2026 while the third and final part of the film franchise will release the following year, in 2027.

Inside Alia Bhatt's birthday celebration: Cake, family and a plateful of spaghetti

<p>Bollywood couple Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are planning to take legal action against the paparazzi who violated their privacy last month after they took photos of Alia, while she was relaxing in her living room.</p>

<p>After the photos were published online, the 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' actress ranted at the paps and shared the incident on social media.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Sharing the photos, she&nbsp;wrote on her Instagram stories, “Are you kidding me? I was at my house having a perfectly normal afternoon sitting in my LIVING ROOM when I felt something watching me… I looked up and saw two men on the terrace of my neighbouring building with a camera right at me!”</p>

<br />
However, now Ranbir has spoken publically about the incident and said they are dealing with the situation legally.<br />
<br />
In an interview with Miss Malini, the 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' actor said, “It was an invasion of privacy. You cannot shoot<br />
inside my house and anything can be happening inside my house, that is my home.''<br />

<br />
Further adding, he told, ''It was totally uncalled for. We are going through the correct legal ways of dealing with it. I don’t want to talk much about it, but it was something which was very ugly.”<br />
<br />
“We respect the paparazzi. I think the paparazzi is a part of our world. It’s a symbiotic relationship ‘they work with us, we work with them’. But stuff like this is something which pushes your back to the wall and you feel very ashamed of<br />
somebody doing something like that.''</p>

The photos of Alia, where she can be seen sitting on her balcony, were taken from the neighbouring building. Sharing the post last month, Alia tagged the Mumbai Police and wrote, ''In what world is this okay and is this allowed? This is a gross invasion of someone’s privacy. There’s a line that you must not cross, and it is safe to say that all lines were crossed today (sic).”&nbsp;<br />

After Alia's post, many celebrities like Janhvi Kapoor, and Anushka Sharma came out in support. Arjun Kapoor also slammed the incident and termed it as 'stalking'.&nbsp;</p>

Ranbir and Alia are taking legal action against paps who invaded their privacy

<p>The highly anticipated romance comedy 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' has had audiences excited with its quirky title and sizzling chemistry between the lead pair of Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor. While it has struck a chord with the youth with its refreshing feel, vibrant visuals and the promise of a rom-com which is very young and very today, it has only increased the anticipation to know more and made junta wait eagerly for the trailer. Seems like that wait is over as the sassy and colourful new poster that launched today has announced the release date of the trailer as 23rd of January.</p>

<p>The new poster brings alive the world of the film, which is very colourful, fun, and full of life. Given that it’s a Luv Ranjan film we can guess that the story of the film will be anything but cliché. Relationships of today are also anything, but predictable. Audiences have waited for a while for a true-blue youth film and 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' promises to be just that.</p>

The highly anticipated romance comedy 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' has had audiences excited with its quirky title and sizzling chemistry between the lead pair of Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor. While it has struck a chord with the youth with its refreshing feel, vibrant visuals and the promise of a rom-com which is very young and very today, it has only increased the anticipation to know more and made junta wait eagerly for the trailer. Seems like that wait is over as the sassy and colourful new poster that launched today has announced the release date of the trailer as 23rd of January. The new poster brings alive the world of the film, which is very colourful, fun, and full of life. Given that it’s a Luv Ranjan film we can guess that the story of the film will be anything but cliché. Relationships of today are also anything, but predictable. Audiences have waited for a while for a true-blue youth film and 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' promises to be just that. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shraddha ✶ (@shraddhakapoor) × 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' is directed by Luv Ranjan, produced by Luv Films’ Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg, and presented by T- Series’ Gulshan Kumar and Bhushan Kumar. The film is all set to have a festive release worldwide in cinemas on Holi, 8th March 2023.

'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' trailer featuring Shraddha Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor to release on this date

<p><strong>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar movie review:&nbsp;</strong>Filmmaker Luv Ranjan has been known for making rom-com that inadvertently shows the female protagonist in a bad light and the men as victims in love and relationships. In Ranjan's universe, the men are always at the receiving end from the women who are projected as ambitious, gold diggers, and as manipulative individuals. Considering his past films, I have to be honest I had already judged his latest <em>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar </em>when the first trailer dropped. The convoluted title (loosely translated as you are a liar and I am a deceit) did help much. But the Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor starrer takes a fresh approach to modern relationships and Ranjan can shrug off the notions around him....well almost.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The film primarily is a romantic comedy but also attempts to take a fresh look at how relationships work and slides in a message or two about true love, and familial love. The result is an engaging film with credible performances from its lead pair.</p>

<p>Set in Delhi, <em>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar</em> has Ranbir Kapoor playing Mickey- a man who has multiple businesses including one of helping people break up- of course for a cost. His best friend Dabbas (comedian Anubhav Singh Bassi) is also his business partner and the two run a thriving business of breaking relationships. On a trip to Spain, Mickey meets Tinni (Shraddha Kapoor) and falls instantly in love. Tinni initially thinks it's a holiday fling, but Mickey convinces her that it is for real. Back home, Mickey introduces Tinni to his family, a boisterous Punjabi family that eats, drinks, and makes merry together. Suffocated and smothered by familial love, Tinni decides to call off the relationship but does not want to broach it on her own.<br />
&nbsp;</p>

<p>Life comes a full circle for Mickey when he realises his girlfriend is trying to seek his help to get rid of him from her life. Does she succeed and more importantly does she find out the truth about Mickey?&nbsp;</p>

<p>Shot by Santhana Krishnan Ravichandran who gets the mood right, <em>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar</em> looks very good from the word go. Actors Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor are in great shape, the locales of Spain are well shot and the whole film has a vibrant feel to it.</p>

<p>Luv Ranjan's actors and frames always look good. It is a story that is debtable mostly. In <em>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar</em>, the lead protagonist takes no time to fall in love but the way Ranjan and co-writer Rahul Mody approach their relationship, coupled with humour, makes the film worth one's time.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Considering how women are usually projected in Luv Ranjan's films, Shraddha's Tinni is remarkably real and practical. She is ambitious, has a well-paying job and lives life on her terms. This is why it becomes difficult to accept her man with the baggage of his family, who are a constant in their relationship. Shraddha returns to the big screen after a long break and does justice to her role as the practical, level-headed Tinni.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The star of the show is Ranbir Kapoor, who in his goofy avatar is pitch-perfect as Mickey. Kapoor plays the charming Mickey to the hilt. His character may remind people of Prem from <em>Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani </em>and Bunny from <em>Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani </em>but Kapoor is fine a performer and makes Mickey an interesting character to watch. &nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>A scene featuring Rajan's lucky mascot Kartik Aaryan is super Meta and so well written and performed. There are so many references to Shraddha, Kartik and Ranbir's real life and the writers have done a swell job in incorporating all the elements into the film.</p>

<p>The film has plenty of monologues - all delivered by Ranbir. There are some which will remind you of Aaryan but Kapoor holds his own in a role that he has played often on screen before.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ranjan's films always have humour and this one is no different. A lot of references to pop culture, quirky dialogues and scenes featuring Bassi and Kapoor are well-written.&nbsp;</p>

<p>My only problem with the story was the way the two characters are shown to fall in love which seemed too rushed and half-baked. Even though both Shraddha and Ranbir share great chemistry on screen, the process of their falling in love seems too vague and hurried. I also wish Dimple Kapadia had not hammed so much playing the boisterous Punjabi mother.&nbsp;<br />

&nbsp;</p>

<p>Kapadia is a stellar actor and she really could have toned it down a bit. The film also marks the debut of producer Boney Kapoor who plays Ranbir's father in the film.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In Ranjan's universe, the man-child is a '<em>sachcha aashiq'</em> (true lover) but also a Mumma's boy who needs all his women around him at all times- mom, sister, grandmother and then the girlfriend.&nbsp;</p>

<p>I wish the film had ended slightly differently (not giving out spoilers, relax) because while the writers very carefully balance the character arc of the two protagonists well throughout the film, they ultimately bow down to conventional ways.&nbsp;</p>

<br />
The narrative also appears to be repetitive after a point and the monologues are far too many to appear funny. It comes all together in the last half an hour with the quintessential dash-to-the-airport-to-profess-love scene where the writers and the actors pack in enough humour to provide plenty of laughs.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Despite the flaws, Luv Ranjan's <em>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar</em>&nbsp;truly makes for a good entertainer, especially during the festive season. Ranbir and Shraddha look great together, they complement each other as actors and dancers. They both are in top form and so is the director who puts romance over bromance, for a change.&nbsp;<br />

Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar movie review: Luv Ranjan puts romance before bromance

<p><strong>Ranbir Kapoor talks about his Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar character - </strong>Director Luv Ranjan is back with another rom-com, <em>Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar&nbsp;</em>and this time his film has a fresh pair- Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor. This film, which is also the first collaboration between the director and the actors Ranbir and Shraddha, has been one of the most-awaited movies of 2023.<br />
<br />
The movie&nbsp;is all set to hit the theatres on March 8, on the occasion of Holi, a big Hindu festival celebrated in India. Before the release, the lead cast of the film is busy with its promotions.&nbsp;On March 4, Shraddha and Ranbir visited Delhi where they interacted with the media and answered questions about the film and its USP.<br />
<br />
At the press conference, WION got the chance to interact with Ranbir and Shraddha about their forthcoming movie where the two stars spoke candidly about the experience of filming a rom-com.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In his decade-long career, Ranbir has been known for playing coming-of-age characters which have received positive reviews from the audience and critics alike. However, when he was asked whether his role in<em> Tu Jhooti Main Makkaar</em>&nbsp;was also on similar&nbsp;lines, the actor immediately denied it and said that ''his coming-of-age days are gone''.<br />
<br />
''I'm done, I have come of age'', quipped Ranbir. The 40-year-old actor added, ''My character in 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar' is different, he's a sorted guy and conflicts in this film are very different.''<br />
<br />
''My coming-of-age days are gone and now I'm no more the Harry Potter.''<br />
<br />
We also spoke to Shraddha and asked her to share one blooper and funny moment while they were shooting for the film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Describing the funny incident that happened with her co-star, the 36-year-old actress said, ''Ranbir is a talented actor and has done great work in the film, but there was one scene that we were filming when he was not able to deliver the dialogue, so at that moment, I had a lot of fun, I laughed insanely.''<br />
<br />
The 'Stree' actress added, "I still doubt that Luv sir had given scenes to Ranbir first, not me. Actually, what usually happens is that we get the script after the narration, but this time Luv sir never shared the script, even after the narration.''<br />
<br />
"We always got the scenes just before the shoots, but I still doubt that Luv sir has done some makkari (shiftiness) with me and always shared the scenes with Ranbir beforehand.''<br />
<br />
Luv Ranjan's film is one of the most awaited romantic comedies of the season. There has been a strong buzz around the film ever since the trailer was released and fans have been raving about the onscreen chemistry between Ranbir and Shraddha.<br />

<p>If multiple reports are to be believed, Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor is all set to play former BCCI president and Indian cricketer Sourav Ganguly in a new biopic. For years, Ganguly has been evasive in naming an actor who he thought would be perfect to play him on the big screen. Recently, there was news of Ganguly meeting certain producers in Mumbai regarding his biopic and final casting of the film. No details of the meeting were made public.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Now, according to a source close to the former captain of the Indian cricket team, Ranbir Kapoor has been confirmed for the biopic. Earlier there were reportedly some date issues but now it is believed Ranbir has given his nod. Interestingly, Sourav has time and again expressed his admiration for Ranbir.</p>

<p>The biopic was first announced in 2019 and several names including that of Hrithik Roshan, Sidharth Malhotra and Kapoor came up in discussions. There has not been any official announcement so far as to which actor will finally be playing Dada on screen, but the industry buzz seems to be suggesting Ranbir Kapoor's name. &nbsp;Sources also state that Kapoor will soon be in Kolkata, Ganguly's hometown to begin his prep for the role. He is likely to visit the historic Eden Gardens, and Ganguly's home during his visit to the city.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
According to reports, the much-talked-about biopic is set to be a big-budget film, amounting to 200 - 250 crores. Ganguly himself is looking into the script to maintain authenticity and had earlier mentioned that he is not in a hurry to make the film as he wants everything to be factually correct. Now, he has reportedly said yes to the final draft of the script and the shooting will kick start soon in Kolkata.<br />
<br />
Ranbir is not new to biopics. He had earlier played actor Sanjay Dutt in Rajkumar Hirani's film <em>Sanju</em>. The actor had won almost all acting honours during the awards season the following year for his performance as the troubled star.&nbsp;</p>

Ranbir Kapoor's 'Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar' trailer to release with SRK's 'Pathaan' in theatres

<p>On Sunday, B-town couple Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, who last shared screen space in Amitabh Bachchan-starrer 'Brahmastra', were spotted cheering together for their football team Mumbai City FC at the Indian Super League. In no time, photos and videos of the two went viral on social media and netizens gushed over their adorable bond.</p>

<p>Taking some time off of their parenting duties, the two reached the football stadium to see Mumbai City FC clashing against Kerala Blasters. Several pictures and videos of the couple surfaced on the internet and did rounds.</p>

<p>Ranbir, who co-owns Mumbai City FC along with Bimal Parekh, was seen sporting his team's jersey along with a pair of denim pants and a black cap. Alia, on the other hand, opted for a black jacket and a pair of skinny denim pants. She completed her look with open tresses.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The two&nbsp;shelled major couple goals at the stand and their PDA moments made waves on the internet. In one viral snap, the two were seen holding hands and paying attention to the match.</p>

<p>The two even met and congratulated players from Mumbai City FC after their stupendous win.</p>

While Ranbir was in a black kurta pyjama paired with a check jacket, Alia was in a sky blue kurta and sharara. Keeping it minimal for the occasion, Alia was seen in very less makeup and open hair.&nbsp;</p>

Yearender: 4 songs that entertained the audiences throughout 2022

<p>2022 has been a tough year for Bollywood overall. In a year when most Hindi films were rejected by moviegoers and the #boycott trended more than the film titles&nbsp;on social media, there was very little to celebrate in Bollywood. But if there was a glimmer of sunshine amid so much hate it was to witness the rise of actress Alia Bhatt who cemented her position at the top this year with three hits, delivering stellar performances in three distinct films.</p>

<p>For Alia, the year began with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Gangubai Kathiawadi. Based on the real-life character of the same known who was known to run a small nexus in Kamathipura the red light district of Mumbai in the 1970s- 80s, there was a certain amount of literature available on Gangu. And so when Bhansali had initially announced the film with Bhatt in the lead, most were skeptical as they felt the actress was too young to play such a role. But Bhatt manages to shut the harshest of her critics as she brought a certain gravitas to her character. The range that the character goes through through the course of the film - from a gullible, innocent girl who is forced into prostitution to becoming the leader of the pack and subsequently a political leader who becomes messiah for many in her area, Bhatt showcased myriad emotions effectively delivering a haunting, impactful performance.</p>

<p>Next up was SS Rajamouli's global blockbuster RRR which had Bhatt in an extended cameo. The film marked her debut in Telugu cinema and even though her screen time as Sita was limited, she managed to create an impression among the audience. Rajamouli's 'RRR' continues to garner praise across the world eight months after its release and is now being touted as an Oscar favourite in a few categories. Its popularity worldwide has not just helped Rajamouli clinch a deal with top talent management agency CAA but also helped its actors gain prominence outside of India- including Alia Bhatt.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="alia" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="51a9a6d1-0398-43fe-a7e4-bb585ae38e3e" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202022-12-01T131849.328.jpg" /></p>

<p>The actress also turned producer this year and collaborated with Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies to produce a dark comedy called 'Darlings' which was released on Netflix. The film had Alia Bhatt playing Badru, a victim of domestic violence at home. How she and her mother Shamshu (Shefali Shah) take revenge on her husband Hamza forms the rest of the story. Directed by debutant Jasmeet Reen, the film boasted of terrific performances from its entire cast including Bhatt, Shah and Vijay Verma who played the lead. Debunking a few societal myths around marriage and love, the film was a stunning cinematic experience. Engaging, quirky, and a story that made you rethink the notion of redemption. &nbsp;Bhatt shined, as the vulnerable Badru who has to come to terms with her abusive husband and take charge of things.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="aa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b3242f19-b2ce-4a31-9f48-a7d3e9fdc189" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202022-12-01T131859.769.jpg" /></p>

<p>Alia closed the year with Ayan Mukerji's dream project, 'Brahamastra Part 1:Shiva' - a film that the actress on several past occasions, has termed as special. It is on the sets of this film that she fell in love and started dating actor Ranbir Kapoor. &nbsp;The pair tied the knot in April this year and they welcomed their first child, a baby girl, in November. Kapoor and Bhatt also shared a crackling chemistry in 'Brahmastra Part 1 : Shiva' a film that merged mythology with modern-day technology to create India's very own superhero franchise. Several critics felt Bhatt was wasted in the film which mostly focussed on Shiva's character but the film's box office success ensured Bhatt's position as the number one star.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="a" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="012eb6ae-8144-4146-8107-641e960000ce" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202022-12-01T131944.248.jpg" /></p>

<p>Amid four releases, film promotions, marriage and pregnancy- she also went to the US to film her first Hollywood film - an action thriller called 'Heart Of Stone' co-starring Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan'. The film is set to release in 2023 exclusively on Netflix.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="aa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4aa39f43-181e-4ad2-9483-4da3837e8f3b" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202022-12-01T131925.206.jpg" /></p>

<p>For most in Bollywood, marriage and a baby leads to a career break if not a complete exit from films. But Bhatt is raring to go, she married at the peak of her career and there's so much still of her to be discovered by the audience. Bhatt also has Karan Johar's 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani' opposite Ranveer Singh, releasing in early 2023, and needless to say, the film is going to be a quintessential Bollywood romance that Johar is known for. And Bhatt beautifully balances it all. From playing the quintessential Bollywood heroine to backing and starring in a film on domestic violence- Alia Bhatt manages to shine in every role.&nbsp;</p>

But if there was a glimmer of sunshine amid so much hate it was to witness the rise of actress Alia Bhatt who cemented her position at the top this year with three hits, delivering stellar performances in three distinct films. For Alia, the year began with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Gangubai Kathiawadi. Based on the real-life character of the same known who was known to run a small nexus in Kamathipura the red light district of Mumbai in the 1970s- 80s, there was a certain amount of literature available on Gangu. And so when Bhansali had initially announced the film with Bhatt in the lead, most were skeptical as they felt the actress was too young to play such a role. But Bhatt manages to shut the harshest of her critics as she brought a certain gravitas to her character. The range that the character goes through through the course of the film - from a gullible, innocent girl who is forced into prostitution to becoming the leader of the pack and subsequently a political leader who becomes messiah for many in her area, Bhatt showcased myriad emotions effectively delivering a haunting, impactful performance. Next up was SS Rajamouli's global blockbuster RRR which had Bhatt in an extended cameo. The film marked her debut in Telugu cinema and even though her screen time as Sita was limited, she managed to create an impression among the audience. Rajamouli's 'RRR' continues to garner praise across the world eight months after its release and is now being touted as an Oscar favourite in a few categories. Its popularity worldwide has not just helped Rajamouli clinch a deal with top talent management agency CAA but also helped its actors gain prominence outside of India- including Alia Bhatt. The actress also turned producer this year and collaborated with Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies to produce a dark comedy called 'Darlings' which was released on Netflix. The film had Alia Bhatt playing Badru, a victim of domestic violence at home. How she and her mother Shamshu (Shefali Shah) take revenge on her husband Hamza forms the rest of the story. Directed by debutant Jasmeet Reen, the film boasted of terrific performances from its entire cast including Bhatt, Shah and Vijay Verma who played the lead. Debunking a few societal myths around marriage and love, the film was a stunning cinematic experience. Engaging, quirky, and a story that made you rethink the notion of redemption. Bhatt shined, as the vulnerable Badru who has to come to terms with her abusive husband and take charge of things. Alia closed the year with Ayan Mukerji's dream project, 'Brahamastra Part 1:Shiva' - a film that the actress on several past occasions, has termed as special. It is on the sets of this film that she fell in love and started dating actor Ranbir Kapoor. The pair tied the knot in April this year and they welcomed their first child, a baby girl, in November. Kapoor and Bhatt also shared a crackling chemistry in 'Brahmastra Part 1 : Shiva' a film that merged mythology with modern-day technology to create India's very own superhero franchise. Several critics felt Bhatt was wasted in the film which mostly focussed on Shiva's character but the film's box office success ensured Bhatt's position as the number one star. Amid four releases, film promotions, marriage and pregnancy- she also went to the US to film her first Hollywood film - an action thriller called 'Heart Of Stone' co-starring Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan'. The film is set to release in 2023 exclusively on Netflix. For most in Bollywood, marriage and a baby leads to a career break if not a complete exit from films. But Bhatt is raring to go, she married at the peak of her career and there's so much still of her to be discovered by the audience. Bhatt also has Karan Johar's 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani' opposite Ranveer Singh, releasing in early 2023, and needless to say, the film is going to be a quintessential Bollywood romance that Johar is known for. And Bhatt beautifully balances it all. From playing the quintessential Bollywood heroine to backing and starring in a film on domestic violence- Alia Bhatt manages to shine in every role.

Yearender 2022: The year Alia Bhatt had her cake and ate it too

<p>Red Sea Film Festival has been abuzz with celebrities around the world and it was a mega glam night as Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor attended the ‘In Conversation’ session. He spoke about his life and career while discussing films that flopped this year and why he thinks they didn’t get the desired result at the box office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Discussing ‘Shamshera’ he said that it was “by far the hardest film I’ve worked on. It was a big box office disaster, but the biggest mistake I made on Shamshera was that I stuck on a beard. When you’re shooting in the heat, and you stick on a beard, it’s like your face is melting.”</p>

<p>‘Shamshera’ is among some of the big-budget Bollywood films this year that tanked at the box office. Ranbir Kapoor went on to say that the Indian box office has been “pretty bad these last few years”. “The entire culture of going to a theatre for a community viewing of a movie seems like it’s dying, and it’s only there for the big ticket films, but I hope with strong storytelling, and renewed vigour, Indian cinema comes back.”</p>

<p>Ranbir also mentioned the success of non Hindi Indian films that have done exceptionally well at the box office. From ‘KGF: Chapter 2’ to ‘RRR’, they have shown success. “They’re doing really good storytelling,” he said of the recent South India cinema boom, citing S. S. Rajamouli’s RRR.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“It’s not taking itself too seriously. It’s got all the songs, dances, action, friendship, and comedy. So it’s a multi-genre film, but those are hard films to make because we try to make them, and they keep failing. So we’re really proud that a film like RRR is making an impact in Hollywood.”</p>

<p>Meanwhile, Ranbir Kapoor’s wife Alia Bhatt recently made her English-language debut in spy thriller ‘Heart of Stone’ with Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan. On whether he will ever make that move to English films, Ranbir Kapoor said, “I’d never say never, but I’m pretty content with the kind of opportunities that are coming my way in my country in my language. I do have a certain block in my head about acting in English. I’d rather act in my language because it comes naturally to me. But never say never.”</p>

Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor reveal the name of their daughter and it’s as unique as one would imagine. Sharing a picture of their infant, holding her in their arms, Alia shared that her daughter’s name was selected by her mother-in-law, Neetu Kapoor. They have named her Raha. In the caption, Alia explained that the name has different meanings in different languages. She wrote, "The name Raha (chosen by her wise and wonderful Dadi) has so many beautiful meanings...Raha, in its purest form means divine path in Swahili. She is joy, In Sanskrit, Raha is a clan. In Bangla - rest, comfort, relief. In Arabic peace, it also means happiness, freedom and bliss. And true to her name, from the first moment we held her - we felt it all. Thank you Raha, for bringing our family to life, it feels as though our lives have only just begun.” See Alia Bhatt's post here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Alia Bhatt 💛 (@aliaabhatt) × Alia Bhatt welcomed her first child with husband Ranbir Kapoor earlier this month.

Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt are living the best phase of their lives as they are all set to become parents soon. Currently, the two are leaving no chance to flaunt their love in public. Be it at a promotional event or on social media, the two have been shelling out couple goals ever since they tied the knot on April 14 earlier this year. And just a while ago, Alia once again left everyone in awe of the couple's chemistry with her Instagram post. Taking to the social networking site, Alia, who is basking in the success of 'Brahmastra', posted a picture with Ranbir. In the monochromatic image, Alia and Ranbir are seen embracing each other with their eyes closed. Ranbir's lips are placed on Alia's nose as he adorably gives her a peck. "Home," Alia captioned the post alongside an infinity sign and heart emoji.

Parents-to-be Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt go all mushy in new picture

<p>Ayan Mukerji's 'Brahmastra' was marketed as the next big thing in Hindi cinema. Borrowing from everything from Hindu mythology to American movie franchises like Marvel Cinematic Universe and 'The Lord of the Rings', the film through trailers and promos, promised state-of-the-art visual effects and a cinematic universe called Astraverse to rival MCU. Starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in the lead roles, the film finally saw the light of day last week. The movie also had Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy, and Nagarjuna Akkineni, in the cast. While it received indifferent reviews from critics, reception among moviegoers was more sanguine. Until now, the film's Hindi version has grossed an impressive Rs 143 crore ($18 million approx).&nbsp;</p>

<p>This is doubly impressive since the movie was quite long by today's standard at around 167 minutes.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>What is 'Brahmastra' all about?</strong></h2>

<p>The movie tells the story of divine, powerful weapons given to sages and warriors of India eons ago. The weapons represented either an element -- like fire, wind, light, and water -- or a diety like the Nandi Astra that harnesses the powers of Nandi.</p>

<p>The main plot begins with the introduction of Ranbir Kapoor's Shiva, who is a man with a mysterious connection to fire. A DJ by profession, he spots Alia Bhatt's Isha among the audience and falls in love with her. Shiva gets strange visions and this journey takes him and Isha to Varanasai and then in Himalayan foothills to discover a threat endangering all existence.</p>

<p>Apparently, there was a weapon more powerful than any other -- the 'Brahmastra' -- with the power to obliterate all life in the universe. One person wanted it all to himself but was stopped by another. In the process, the weapon was broken into three pieces, each of which was entrusted to members of a secret society called Brahmansh. The weapon will stay dormant until the pieces are joined. And the destruction of the cosmos will follow.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The audience clearly forgave the film's muddled plot, atrocious dialogue, and decent but derivative world-building in favour of truly impressive visual effects from DNEG.</p>

<h2><strong>How does 'Brahmastra' budget compare to others?</strong></h2>

<p>The movie was reportedly made on a budget of Rs 410 crore or $51.7 million. This makes it one of the most expensive Indian films ever. Only&nbsp;'RRR' and '2.0' are above it with production costs of Rs 550 crore ($69 million) and Rs 500 crore ($63 million) – Rs570 crore ($71 million), respectively. As should be clear, 'Brahmastra' is the most expensive Hindi film to date. At the second position is Aamir Khan's 'Thugs of Hindostan' (and we know how that ended) with a budget of Rs 310 crore ($39 million).&nbsp;</p>

<p>(Some of these budgets look so inflated that it appears they are money-laundering schemes disguised as movies).</p>

<h2><strong>Is 'Brahmastra' a success?</strong></h2>

<p>The marketing and PR team of 'Brahmastra' has likely led you to believe that the movie is an out-and-out success. But film economics and the truth are more complicated than that. As mentioned above, the film's reported budget is Rs 410 crore or $51.7 million. This is just the production budget. Studios spend a lot of money on marketing and promoting the movie with trailers, advertisement campaigns, and so on. And behind 'Brahmastra' was Walt Disney Studios through its Indian subsidiary Star Studios. We do not know how much money was spent to make sure more and more people booked the tickets to the movie, but it was likely not inconsiderable.</p>

<p>As mentioned above, the film's Hindi iteration has grossed Rs 143 crore or $18 million until now as per reports. This figure does not count all the other language versions, only Hindi. Taking a cue from the big Telugu and Kannada releases, 'Brahmastra' was also targetted at moviegoers down south with dubbed release in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam.</p>

<p>As per Dharma, the film opened with Rs 75 crore worldwide or $9.4 million on the very first day. Many suggested the figure was suspiciously 'proper' to be true. And indeed, studios and distributors have a history of sharing inflated figures to send a subliminal 'everyone else has seen the movie, and you're missing out!' message to potential viewers.&nbsp;</p>

<p>But whatever the true figures, the film will almost certainly not break even with its budget (inflated budgets are another trick to lure in moviegoers). However, box office returns are not the end of the road for movies' earnings. Once the film is out of theatres, it gets an OTT release on services like Netflix, Prime Video, or ZEE5. In addition to that, there are satellite rights and music rights through which producers can recover their money. Or the star of the film may let go of their fees to recoup the losses. Recently, it was reported that Aamir Khan let go of his fees of Rs 100 crore or $12.63 million to compensate for the flop that was 'Laal Singh Chaddha'.<br />

Is 'Brahmastra' really a success? It's complicated

<p>Bollywood's latest big-budgeted film, Ayan Mukerji's <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-brahmastra-movie-review-ranbir-kapoor-alia-bhatts-film-works-for-its-special-effects-not-for-its-story-514432">fantasy superhero epic 'Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva' or just 'Brahmastra'</a></strong>, is sailing in untroubled waters when it comes to theatrical box office performance. It remains to be seen whether it will recoup its sky-high budget, let alone earn profit,&nbsp;but at the moment, the producers and distributors have reasons to be faithful. Starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in lead roles, <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-brahmastra-offers-some-awe-inspiring-cgi-action-but-is-butchered-by-a-dreadful-script-514832">the film</a></strong> launched India's own cinematic universe called the Astraverse. The story establishes a deep mythology involving secret societies and divine weapons that harness the powers of elements or deities bestowed to ancient warrior sages by the gods.</p>

<p>Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy, and Nagarjuna Akkineni also featured in the cast.</p>

<p>Since the film establishes a cinematic universe, we can expect spinoff movies and even potentially TV series beyond the main three-movie series that we know of. We might soon see a spinoff movie that delves into the origin of Shah Rukh Khan's Mohan Bhargav, the 'Scientist', that we saw in the first act of the movie.

Bollywood's latest big-budgeted film, Ayan Mukerji's fantasy superhero epic 'Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva' or just 'Brahmastra', is sailing in untroubled waters when it comes to theatrical box office performance.

Bollywood's latest big-budgeted film, Ayan Mukerji's fantasy superhero epic 'Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva' or just 'Brahmastra', is sailing in untroubled waters when it comes to theatrical box office performance. It remains to be seen whether it will recoup its sky-high budget, let alone earn profit, but at the moment, the producers and distributors have reasons to be faithful. Starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in lead roles, the film launched India's own cinematic universe called the Astraverse. The story establishes a deep mythology involving secret societies and divine weapons that harness the powers of elements or deities bestowed to ancient warrior sages by the gods. Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy, and Nagarjuna Akkineni also featured in the cast. Also Read: Is 'Brahmastra' really a success? It's complicated Since the film establishes a cinematic universe, we can expect spinoff movies and even potentially TV series beyond the main three-movie series that we know of. We might soon see a spinoff movie that delves into the origin of Shah Rukh Khan's Mohan Bhargav, the 'Scientist', that we saw in the first act of the movie. Mohan Bhargav was also the name of SRK's character in Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Swades'. Watch | Critically Speaking: Is 'Brahmastra' worth the hype? Mukerji teased the same in an interview.

'Brahmastra' spinoff movie to revolve around Shah Rukh Khan's Scientist? Here's what Ayan Mukerji has to say

<p>When I first saw the trailer for Ayan Mukerji's 'Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva', I remember wondering why it chose to focus on visuals of characters hurling magical light at each other and there was hardly any information about the plot and dialogue. Now I know the answer. ''Brahmastra' has a few halfway-decent ideas, good world-building, and eye-poppingly good visuals. But it is not the saviour the Hindi film industry needed. Clocking at around 167 minutes -- while somehow feeling even longer -- Brahmastra' is a slog throughout. Borrowing from Hindu myths was an interesting decision in my view, if a little hazardous in a country where many seem to be yearning to take offence from something and boycotting every movie with a big star. But 'Brahmastra' squanders the potential.</p>

<p><strong>The world-building in 'Brahmāstra' is derivative&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BUjXzrgntcY" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Hinduism has had a long history and there are thousands of tales and legends about gods, demons, supernatural creatures, and so on -- pretty much everything needed to build a cinematic universe that Mukerji intended. And indeed, the world-building in 'Brahmāstra' is not exactly bad, but it does not feel fresh. It has borrowed from several movie franchises from the west like 'Harry Potter', 'The Lord of the Rings' and, of course, the Marvel Cinematic Universe'. The film has lifted the Chosen One trope from western pop culture as well. Sometimes, the 'inspiration' goes too far. For instance, the powers of Mouni Roy's villainous Junoon, the Queen of Darkness, carry a strong resemblance with Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch in MCU to a suspicious degree. When is a piece of creativity a homage and when does it become derivative? 'Brahmāstra' does tend to blur the lines.</p>

<p><strong>Despite being too "inspired", the mythology built in 'Brahmastra' has potential</strong></p>

<p>However, I did not mind the derivative part much and had actually expected that. The mythology of the intended AstraVerse, as the cinematic universe is named, does throw up a few fascinating ideas. It revolves around a bunch of MacGuffins. In this world, the LotR-style prologue tells us, sages and warriors called forth the powers of heavens eons ago and were gifted with weapons of untold power, each representing an element -- like fire, wind, light, and water -- or some diety like the Nandi Astra that harnesses the powers of Nandi.</p>

<p>There was a weapon more powerful than any other: the 'Brahmastra' (One Ring to rule them all, haha), with the power to obliterate all life in the universe. One person wanted it all to himself but was stopped by another. In the process, Brahmāstra was broken into three pieces, each of which was entrusted to members of a secret society called Brahmansh. The weapon will stay dormant until the pieces are joined. And the destruction of the cosmos will follow. Which is not what the protagonists want.</p>

<p>Cut to the present. Ranbir Kapoor's Shiva is a man with a mysterious connection to fire. A DJ by profession, he spots Alia Bhatt's Isha among the audience and falls in love with her. Shiva is accustomed to strange visions and one evening sees a scientist being ambushed by two assassins clad like ninjas and none other than Roy's Junoon -- as it is happening. The scientist, we are told, was one of the Brahmansha and had a piece of the Brahmastra. Shiva and Isha then go on a journey to save Nagarjuna's Anish Shetty, who is awaiting a similar fate in Varanasi. Later, they find Amitabh heading what remains of the Brahmansha in the high Himalayas, with Big B's character serving as Gandalf to Ranbir's Frodo (the parallels are eerie, I tell you).</p>

<p><strong>Visuals are the highlight</strong></p>

<p>'Brahmastra' knows what kind of movie this is and where most of the money, I presume, has been spent. The visual effects are truly awe-inspiring at times. And it is not just the magical beams and fireballs and everything else computer generated. It is also the more quotidian stuff. For instance, a scene in which hundreds of devotees dance during Durga Pooja to the tunes of Shiva looks absolutely spectacular with a camera. The cinematography, by multiple people according to Wikipedia, provides gorgeous imagery. It is so good that even the high-quality CGI-driven visuals look gaudy and distracting after&nbsp;a while.</p>

<p><strong>'Brahmastra' is sometimes excessive -- throwing everything at the audience that it deems would be enjoyed</strong></p>

<p>Despite the consistently splendid imagery, 'Brahmastra' can be excessive. Mukerji, who earlier directed Ranbir in 'Wake Up Sid' and 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani', is not a fan of subtlety, I gather. Every single scene has to be overwrought and filled with import. Perhaps that was the studio demand? I don't know. In one scene, Shiva is just walking in the streets and Pritam is playing drums in the background.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>The dialogues are atrocious</strong></p>

<p>As I said above, the writing is fine as far as the world-building goes, but it's the dialogues that truly sink the movie. You know, you have to expect poor writing when you are going to watch a big-budget Hindi movie. It is a given at this point. But even by that standards, 'Brahmastra' is terrible.&nbsp;</p>

<p>There is one piece of conversation that I am not likely to forget anytime soon. Shiva jokes to Isha that she got burnt in her love, pointing to a burn she got on a shoulder during an engagement with the assassins. To this, she responds something along the lines of 'long back'. 'Pyar ki aag' is a phrase I thought I would never hear outside of 90s' Hindi cinema. It felt to me at times that Ranbir and other actors are doing a bit -- &nbsp;they must be -- or the movie is simply an overlong SNL sketch. Or perhaps the words coming out of their mouths are meant to be ironic or campy? No, none of that. Everything is uttered with a straight face. Whatever the jokes the movies have don't land. The actors act like the budget could afford two or three facial expressions.</p>

<p>Oh, and everything has to be spelled out. Every. Single. Thing. Repeatedly, just in case the audience did not get what the titular weapon does in the last dozen times. The script is chock-full of exposition and did not have the decency to make the conversation remotely interesting.&nbsp;</p>

<p>I don't ask this question lightly: did they hire a turnip to write the dialogues?&nbsp;</p>

'Brahmastra' box office collection: Ranbir-Alia's film has a 'fabulous weekend', earns $27 million worldwide

<p>5 years in making, a pandemic thrown in the middle, a romance on sets and eventually a wedding later, filmmaker Ayan Mukerji's labour&nbsp;of love 'Brahmastra- Part One: Shiva' releases today in theatres worldwide. A film that has been touted as the most expensive movie made in Bollywood ever- thanks to its extravagant VFX- is also one of the most talked about films of the season. It is also a crucial film for Bollywood at a time when the Hindi film industry is struggling to create an impact at the box office. Delays and controversies notwithstanding, Ranbir Kapoor- Alia Bhatt's 'Brahmastra' manages to infuse a very Indian concept with western sensibilities of filmmaking. The result is a convoluted plot with stunning modern technology to back it up.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>What is the story of&nbsp;'Brahmastra'?</strong><br />
<br />
Considering it is the first part of a trilogy, the film begins by establishing the premise well. It takes the viewers back in time and establishes how in ancient times, sages meditated at the Himalayas to attain superpowers based on four elements - fire, wind, water, and earth as well as elements from plants and animals to create unique weapons or <em>astras</em>. These sages form the '<em>Brahmansh' </em>- a sort of universe where they use these newly acquired weapons to protect the world. One of the strongest of the <em>astra</em> that is created originates from light, which has so much power in it that it can destroy the universe. What now exists of Brahmastra are in three parts- each being protected by a key leader of '<em>Brahmansh'</em> - a secret group of people who wield superpowers when needed to fight evil.&nbsp;</p>

<br />
Shiva, a DJ in Mumbai, has lived a good life mostly despite the odds against him. An orphan who has lived a life on his own terms, he meets Isha(Alia Bhatt) during a Dushera Carnival and instantly falls in love. But his love life is hindered by flashes/nightmares he gets which make him revisit a horrific past involving his mother's death, of important people getting hunted by one Junoon (Mouni Roy) and her men in search of a broken piece of rock- part of the Brahmastra. The ones who are being hunted- are important people of the society- one is a scientist- who gets killed in order to protect his important artifact/stone. Shiva foresees the same fate for a Benaras-based archeologist (Nagarjuna) and decides to go to Varanasi along with Isha in order to warn him before Junoon and her men reach him.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>The inspiration from the west</strong><br />
<br />
Written by Ayan Mukerji and dialogues by Hussain Dalal, the film takes inspiration from the Harry Potter series and Marvel Cinematic Universe to create a story that is very Indian at heart. The result is middling as the story remains extremely convoluted and lacks coherence on several occasions. The first half, when films usually establish the plot, is not very convincing. The pace only picks up in the second half when Amitabh Bachchan's character - as a leader of Brahmansh is introduced, who joins the pieces of the puzzle for Shiva as well as the audience making the story more coherent and believable.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="f" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="85e515e2-cb92-407b-8e84-6b882523e616" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20%2821%29_15.jpg" /><br />
<br />
It is quite apparent that the writers borrow heavily from the west. Be it the screenplay that is inspired&nbsp;from Harry Potter and several Marvel films to even the dialogues, which perhaps were primarily thought in English and then translated into Hindi. Like '<em>Brahmastra ki roshni tum dono ke saath rahe'</em> is literally 'May the force be with you' or '<em>Roshni ki taqat mein vishwas rakhta hoon'</em> is 'I believe in the power of light'. The characters are not well etched out and Mukerji's character sketches remain half-baked. Ranbir Kapoor's character asks a lot of questions but never answers any himself. The process of falling in love with Isha seems rather out of the blue. Considering Shiva is propelled by love, the script hardly concentrates on his love story with Isha. Sure, Isha is around always as a supportive girlfriend but it is never established what made the two fall in love in the first instance.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>The special effects and music</strong><br />
<br />
While there are several flaws in the film's writing, the VFX more than makes up for it. It is a visual extravaganza that Indian cinema has not seen. SS Rajamouli's 'Baahubali' too was heavily backed by VFX but 'Brahmastra' perhaps takes it a step ahead. The second half especially is stunning.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The film's music by Pritam too is praiseworthy. Each song- from 'Dance Ka Bhoot' to 'Deva Deva' to ever popular 'Kesariya' are beautifully composed and stays with you much after the film. The sons have also been shot really well by cinematographers Sudeep Chatterjee, Patrick Duroux, Pankaj Kumar, Manikandan, and Vikash Nowlakha.&nbsp;<br />

<p><strong>The performances</strong></p>

<p>The film is not performance-driven even though it has some prominent faces playing key roles.

5 years in making, a pandemic thrown in the middle, a romance on sets and eventually a wedding later, filmmaker Ayan Mukerji's labour of love 'Brahmastra- Part One: Shiva' releases today in theatres worldwide. A film that has been touted as the most expensive movie made in Bollywood ever- thanks to its extravagant VFX- is also one of the most talked about films of the season. It is also a crucial film for Bollywood at a time when the Hindi film industry is struggling to create an impact at the box office. Delays and controversies notwithstanding, Ranbir Kapoor- Alia Bhatt's 'Brahmastra' manages to infuse a very Indian concept with western sensibilities of filmmaking. The result is a convoluted plot with stunning modern technology to back it up. What is the story of 'Brahmastra'? Considering it is the first part of a trilogy, the film begins by establishing the premise well. It takes the viewers back in time and establishes how in ancient times, sages meditated at the Himalayas to attain superpowers based on four elements - fire, wind, water, and earth as well as elements from plants and animals to create unique weapons or astras. These sages form the 'Brahmansh' - a sort of universe where they use these newly acquired weapons to protect the world. One of the strongest of the astra that is created originates from light, which has so much power in it that it can destroy the universe. What now exists of Brahmastra are in three parts- each being protected by a key leader of 'Brahmansh' - a secret group of people who wield superpowers when needed to fight evil. Everything you should know about Ranbir Kapoor's 'Brahmastra' - From Astraverse to SRK cameo Shiva, a DJ in Mumbai, has lived a good life mostly despite the odds against him. An orphan who has lived a life on his own terms, he meets Isha(Alia Bhatt) during a Dushera Carnival and instantly falls in love. But his love life is hindered by flashes/nightmares he gets which make him revisit a horrific past involving his mother's death, of important people getting hunted by one Junoon (Mouni Roy) and her men in search of a broken piece of rock- part of the Brahmastra. The ones who are being hunted- are important people of the society- one is a scientist- who gets killed in order to protect his important artifact/stone. Shiva foresees the same fate for a Benaras-based archeologist (Nagarjuna) and decides to go to Varanasi along with Isha in order to warn him before Junoon and her men reach him. The inspiration from the west Written by Ayan Mukerji and dialogues by Hussain Dalal, the film takes inspiration from the Harry Potter series and Marvel Cinematic Universe to create a story that is very Indian at heart. The result is middling as the story remains extremely convoluted and lacks coherence on several occasions. The first half, when films usually establish the plot, is not very convincing. The pace only picks up in the second half when Amitabh Bachchan's character - as a leader of Brahmansh is introduced, who joins the pieces of the puzzle for Shiva as well as the audience making the story more coherent and believable. It is quite apparent that the writers borrow heavily from the west. Be it the screenplay that is inspired from Harry Potter and several Marvel films to even the dialogues, which perhaps were primarily thought in English and then translated into Hindi. Like 'Brahmastra ki roshni tum dono ke saath rahe' is literally 'May the force be with you' or 'Roshni ki taqat mein vishwas rakhta hoon' is 'I believe in the power of light'. The characters are not well etched out and Mukerji's character sketches remain half-baked. Ranbir Kapoor's character asks a lot of questions but never answers any himself. The process of falling in love with Isha seems rather out of the blue. Considering Shiva is propelled by love, the script hardly concentrates on his love story with Isha. Sure, Isha is around always as a supportive girlfriend but it is never established what made the two fall in love in the first instance. The special effects and music While there are several flaws in the film's writing, the VFX more than makes up for it. It is a visual extravaganza that Indian cinema has not seen. SS Rajamouli's 'Baahubali' too was heavily backed by VFX but 'Brahmastra' perhaps takes it a step ahead. The second half especially is stunning. The film's music by Pritam too is praiseworthy. Each song- from 'Dance Ka Bhoot' to 'Deva Deva' to ever popular 'Kesariya' are beautifully composed and stays with you much after the film. The sons have also been shot really well by cinematographers Sudeep Chatterjee, Patrick Duroux, Pankaj Kumar, Manikandan, and Vikash Nowlakha. The performances The film is not performance-driven even though it has some prominent faces playing key roles. Amitabh Bachchan plays his usual patriarch in the film, and Mukerji underuses the crackling chemistry that his lead- real-life couple Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt share. As a matter of fact, the two actors are very underused. These roles could have been done by anyone, it did not need a Ranbir or an Alia to drive it forward. Mouni Roy, as the evil Junoon is the only actress who impressed me- but the dialogues deeply fail her too. Watch out for the interesting cameos that are spread over 166 minutes of the film. The makers demand a suspension of disbelief while watching the film and thanks to its VFX, one wants to indulge in Mukerji's vision. 'Brahmastra' got delayed multiple times because the director wanted the special effects to look a certain way and the hard work shows on screen. Sure, the story is illogical on many occasions and this is not Mukerji's best writing. But haven't we been indulging Marvel for years as it has released numerous films years after years? There is a fatigue that many MCU fans are facing in present times with repetitive stories and innumerable stand-alone films, and perhaps that's why the introduction of Ayan Mukerji's Atra-verse in 'Brahmastra' can satiate the craving of ardent superhero fans. 'Brahmastra- Part One: Shiva' is in theatres from September 9.
