Deepika Padukone to play Parvati in Brahmastra? Director Ayan Mukerji has THIS to say

Brahmastra has been creating a lot of buzz since its inception. The Ayan Mukerji directorial is one of the most anticipated movies of this year. It stars Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna Akkineni and Mouni Roy in pivotal roles. The trailer released last month and it was lauded by everyone.

Post the trailer release, there were reports that actors Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone are also part of the movie. Fans even claimed that they spotted them in the trailer of Brahmastra. The recent report in a leading portal states that Deepika will play Parvati in Brahmastra 2. It is said that she will be making a special appearance in the first part of the Brahmastra trilogy. Now, Ayan has reacted to reports of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika’s cameos in the film.

He told Mirchi Plus that he knows nothing about this, but added, “Part 2 maybe. It is good suggestion for Part 2 maybe you’ll get to see them then.”

Ayan further said, “One thing I want to tell you is that Brahmastra is not really about Lord Shiva. Ranbir Kapoor’s character is just called Shiva in it. My greatest hero is Shiv Bhagwan. There is a lot of inspiration that I’ve put in my own way into this film and into this character. So there is no role of Parvati in Part One or Part Two or Part Three. To some extent, like it says in the dialogue of the movie, Isha is really Shiva’s Parvati (character Shiva’s Parvati) in this trilogy”.
