Ayan Mukerji: Will be shooting Brahmastra 2 and 3 together; will write both without compromise

Ayan Mukerji recently revealed that although the sequel to Brahmastra will take a little while, he will be shooting the second part and the third part simultaneously.

Stating that the team is going to spend some more time writing the project, the director at the Rising India Summit said, “We will make Brahmastra 2 and 3 together. The truth is we are going to take a little bit of time to write it. I know there’s a lot of anticipation.”

Ayan also said that the film might take three more years to come out. “People want the (second part of the film) film to come out. But first, we’ll write it without compromising it. I think it will be about three years from now before we see Brahmastra 2 on the big screen."

Brahmastra: Part One-Shiva minted about Rs 400 crore at the box office, but it was also criticised for the dialogue written by Hussain Dalal. Responding to it, Ayan said, “We did get some mixed reactions. We still did really good numbers. A lot of people accepted our film. It also did well when it came out on a streaming (platform). It’s probably the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2022. But I still hear that criticism very clearly."

“The thing is, I accept and agree with some of it. Some of that criticism came down to some aspects related to the writing and story of Brahmastra. I want to understand these things and make part two better,” he added.
