Ayan Mukerji's Brahmastra part one to be released on December 4

The first instalment of Ayan Mukerji's much-anticipated Brahmastra trilogy finally has a release date and it is December 4, 2020. The long-in-the-making project will feature Ayan's frequent collaborator Ranbir Kapoor, besides Alia Bhatt, Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna, and Mouni Roy.

The announcement about the release was made by the cast in a funny video that was shared by Alia on Instagram. In the clip, recorded by Alia, Ranbir is seen grilling Ayan about the delays and incessantly asking the director about the film's final release date.

Amitabh Bachchan is also present in the video but he only reacts when Ayan says that he has a release date for Brahmastra part one and that is December 4, 2020.

"So... this just happened! Brahmastra 04.12.2020.. promise," Alia captioned the video.

She also shared the news on Twitter, saying, "Brahmastra.. coming to cinemas on 4/12/20 and Ayan is not allowed to change it now!"

The film, produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions and Fox Star Studios, will be released in five languages — Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.

This first instalment of Brahmastra was earlier set to come out last December, but Ayan had postponed it to this summer, saying he needed more time in order to get the film's VFX right.
