Brahmastra: Ranbir Kapoor And Alia Bhatt To Take Pay Cuts; Film To Face Another Delay?
If latest reports are anything to go by, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt have decided to take pay cuts to make their upcoming film Brahmastra feasible. This makes us wonder if film is set to face yet another delay?
Seems like, there’s no possibility of Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, hitting the screens on December 4, 2020. It’s been almost two years now since the film has gone on the floors. But if the latest reports are anything to go by it is being reported that Brahmastra might just be delayed even further due to the Coronavirus and the extending lockdowns. A Bollywood Hungama report states that the makers of Brahmastra are trying to curb costs while still making the release date of the film. With extending lockdowns the budgets of the film is escalating.
A source close to the development released to Bollywood Hungama, “Currently there are about 40 more days of shoot left and given the lock down situation, it does not look like the shoot will start any time soon. Given this delay so far the budget of Brahmastra has overshot by a wide margin. The movie is high on VFX and a major chunk of VFX is still pending which includes the stuff shot with Shah Rukh Khan at a studio in Mumbai, and the plot that unfolds in Manali and Varanasi.”
When prodded further the source sad that Karan is looking to re-work the economics of the film. The members of the film’s cast as well as director, viz. Ayan Mukherji, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, aware of the ground realities, have voluntarily decided to take a pay cut to make the project viable.
“In lieu of the diminished pay, Dharma Productions is contemplating offering them a profit share in the film’s success. However details of the same have not yet been worked out,” added the source. (ALSO READ: Shah Rukh Khan To Play THIS Role In Ranbir Kapoor - Alia Bhatt Starrer Brahmastra)
