Bramhastra: Rumours Of  Disney-Fox Asking For Cuts In The Ranbir Kapoor And Alia Bhatt Starrer Totally Untrue - EXCLUSIVE
“They haven’t even finished  shooting. They’ve a long way to go. How can Fox-Star ask for  the length of Brahmastra to be  cut when the film is yet to be  completed?” asks a source very closely associated with   Brahmāstra, further adding, “They’ve plenty of shooting to be done before Brahmastra reaches the finishing line. Two whole schedules had to be cancelled. They need to rework their schedules as per Bachchan Saab’s requirements,” says the  source.

Since Bachchan Saab is the senior-most among the principal cast and as he has  had a tryst with Covid-19, producer Karan Johar has  advised the Brahmastra team to shoot the remaining portions as per Mr Bachchan’s convenience.

As far as the film’s length is concerned, sources say Brahmastra will have three separate segments, each a separate  film. ALSO READ: After Alia Bhatt And Ranbir Kapoor Move-In Together During Lockdown, Families Lock Their Wedding Date In December?


“And all the three films in  the Brahmastra series will be of approximately 2 hours duration,” says a source close  to the project, thereby putting an end to the speculation regarding the film’s length.

Karan has revisited the budget for his Brahmastra which is directed by his favourite  protégée Ayan Mukerji and  stars Ranbir Kapoor, Karan’s favourite actor of the post-Shah Rukh Khan generation along with his most favourite protégée, Alia Bhatt. Somewhere Karan now feels he may have gotten swept into this mammoth project without really considering all the ifs and buts. “Whether Bhamhastra goes forward as a series or not will depend on how the first film fares. Just because you have a lavish project it doesn’t mean the audience will lap it up. As for Bramhastra featuring Ranbir with the mighty Amitabh Bachchan together for the first time, didn’t Thugs Of Hindustan feature Aamir Khan with Mr Bachchan for the first time. What good did that do  to the  project?” reasons a  source.
