Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt star in Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra
Alia Bhatt returned to Mumbai with Ranbir
Kapoor just recently. The actors were shooting in Varanasi for Brahmastra.
Alia Bhatt is a part of Ayan
Mukerji's Brahmastra. She was shooting in Varanasi with Ranbir Kapoor for a new
schedule of her upcoming film Brahmastra. She had to cut short the shoot three
days ahead of the wrap-up. The actress had to urgently return to Mumbai after
she fell sick on the set and her health deteriorated.
The Raazi actress will be
consulting a specialist in Mumbai. She will be taking some time off shooting to
recover before joining back. Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor were accompanied by
Nagarjuna Akkineni and Mouni Roy to Varanasi, where they shot at 40 degree
Celsius.
The lead pair of Brahmastra, Alia
and Ranbir, had to shoot for a song for the next three days. The song will be
shot in November now. Alia continued to work but Ayan (Mukerji, the director of
Brahmastra) decided to call off the shoot. The team will now return to the city
in November for the song.
Alia Bhatt is paired opposite beau
Ranbir Singh in Brahmastra. This is their first film together. At Filmfare
Awards this year, Alia accepted the Best Actress award for her performance in
Raazi.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji,
Brahmastra is a mythological action-adventure film that also features Amitabh
Bachchan and Dimple Kapadia. It is the first film in Ayan's fantasy trilogy.
The first two schedules of the film have been shot in Bulgaria and Mumbai.
Brahmastra is scheduled to release in the Summer of 2020. This is a film that
has been the talk of the tinsel town since it went on floors.
Alia and Ranbir had to shoot for a
song in the next three days. However, Alia had been caught by the stomach bug
due to the extreme heat of the Summer. The Gully Boy star continued to shoot
despite falling ill. But before the song shoot that was to last for three days,
director Ayan Mukerji called it off and asked her to rest.
In the film, Alia will be seen as
Isha while Ranbir will be playing Shiva. Recently at a press conference, Ayan
revealed that Varanasi plays an important role in taking the story forward and
hence, the shoot is very pivotal to the film. Brahmastra is being produced by
Karan Johar.
Ranbir Kapoor’s Shamshera’s release
date was pushed back due to Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra. Ranbir Kapoor is one of
the few actors who’s consistently been able to deliver on the big screen. His
past movies like Wake Up Sid, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and more recently, Sanju,
received a lot of love from the audience. Ranbir Kapoor has now two big
projects lined up in the near future - Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra and Karan
Malhotra’s Shamshera.
However, as per a recent report in
an entertainment portal, Ranbir’s film with Vaani Kapoor might face a delay in
the release as his other film, Brahmastra is taking up too many dates. The
report also claims that Karan Johar met up with Aditya Chopra to discuss the
issue and requested him to push the dates of Shamshera behind since he will
require more dates of Ranbir to wrap up Brahmastra. Aditya agreed and dates
were freed up for Ranbir to shoot Brahmastra with Alia Bhatt.
Mouni Roy is playing the role of an
antagonist in 'Brahmastra,' opposite Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. Mouni Roy
has been a popular face in the TV industry for quite some time now. However,
with 2018 film Gold she made sure that audiences take note of her on the silver
screen as well. Reema Kagti’s period sports-drama Gold was her big budget
Bollywood debut and from there onwards she has gone on to bag some good films
for herself, a few of them being Romeo Akbar Walter (RAW), opposite John
Abraham; Made in China, opposite Rajkummar Rao and Brahmastra, opposite Ranbir
Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Amitabh Bachchan.
In the fantasy trilogy Brahmastra, Mouni
is pitted against Ranbir and Alia. Her part in popular show Naagin helped her
bag this role. She is playing the main villain in the film. She is really
looking forward to it. What is more liberating for her is playing different
characters that challenge her. She was surprised initially that they wanted her
to play the villain. Ayan Mukerji (director) had seen something from Naagin and
felt she could play the villain. So you never know what clicks with whom. As an
actor, you should be willing to experiment and be versatile otherwise you can't
learn and grow. Recently, Mouni also opted out of Bole Chudiyan, opposite
Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Brahmastra actress Mouni Roy, for your information, shot
to fame with the television serial Naagin, and she is going places in
Bollywood. After being noticed in Akshay Kumar's Gold last year, she will be
playing the villain in Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra which is a sci-fi drama. On
the work front, Mouni was last seen in Romeo Akbar Walter, which starred John
Abraham.
The Ayan Mukerji film also has
Amitabh Bachchan in a pivotal role. The logo of the film was unveiled during
Kumbh Mela.
When Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt
were shooting for Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra in Varanasi, they visited the
famous Kashi Vishwanath temple to seek blessings. A picture of the two posing
with fans outside the temple is being widely shared by fan clubs on Twitter and
Instagram. Ranbir Kapoor’s fan even went to the extent of touching his feet in
Varanasi. Ranbir was heavily trolled after fan met him and then touched his
feet.
In the video, Ranbir is seen
greeting a fan who had come to meet the star with gifts including chocolates.
The fan, on meeting Ranbir, touches his feet. After greeting him, Ranbir moves
towards the seating area in the hotel and sits on the sofa. The unnamed fan
follows the actor and sits by him, but on the floor while the two constantly
chat. This video has not gone down well with many netizens, who are angry that
Ranbir didn’t even offer a seat to his fan. A user wrote if Ranbir thought he
was God while others called him rude.
Some time ago, Ranbir and Ali were
spotted at Ramnagar Fort and Chet Singh Fort in Varanasi. In one of the
pictures, Alia was seen wearing a white kurta with a red scarf wrapped around
her wrist. Ranbir was in an all-black combination. They stood inside what
looked like a temple as a deity’s idol could be seen in the background.
The film was supposed to hit the
theatres this December, however, the VFX team needed more time to work on the
film and hence, the release date has been shifted to next year.
Touted as director Ayan Mukerji's
most ambitious project ever, Ranbir plays a DJ who walks out of his house
against his father's wishes. The story then traces his journey as he tries to
fulfil his dreams and discovers his superpowers in the process. Every character
in the film possesses superpowers, with Kapoor's character believed to have the
power to unleash fire from his palms. The actor has also reportedly undergone
rigourous training in various forms of martial arts for the role. It apparently
has some high octane action sequences. Ranbir trained in traditional Indian
martial arts, including Kalaripayattu and Varma Kalai, before the film went on
floors in 2017.
