Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor have recently headed to Bulgaria for the second schedule of ‘Brahmastra‘. The two are uniting for the first time for this first part of the upcoming trilogy of Ayan Mukerji.
The film also stars Amitabh Bachchan and Mouni Roy in lead roles. Apart from these stars, the makers have now got a south superstar on board to make it a bigger affair. It is none other than Akkineni Nagarjuna, who has appeared in Bollywood films like ‘Angaarey’ and ‘Criminal’.

The first part of the trilogy which is set to release next year is reportedly made on a budget of Rs 100 crore. In an early interview, director Ayan Mukerji had said, “This film is a modern day film. It is set in India as it exists today but the name of the film is Brahmastra because the energy, wisdom and powers in the film come from ancient India. As far as costumes are concerned, there are some which may not be the way you would expect them to be.”
Apart from this project, Ranbir Kapoor has ‘Shamshera’ and Luv Ranjan’s next in his kitty whereas Alia Bhatt has ‘Gully Boy’ and ‘Kalank’.
