India’s first ever movie trilogy and cinematic magnum opus, Brahmastra Part One: Shiva releases on 9th September 2022. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the film features Amitabh Bachchan, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor in the lead roles while Dimple Kapadia, Nagarjuna Akkineni, Mouni Roy and Shah Rukh Khan in an extended cameo.
Produced by Fox Star Studios, Dharma Productions, Prime Focus and Starlight Pictures, the magnum opus will release theatrically in 5 Indian languages - Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada. The film’s Part 1 was supposed to release on December 4, 2020 but the date had to be pushed due to the Coronavirus scare.
For the unversed, the director is said to have spent 6 years writing Brahmastra. On Sunday, Ayan shared a glimpse of the soulful song 'Kesariya' from the movie along with a love poster featuring the lead stars as Isha (Alia) and Shiva (Ranbir). The two are looking lovingly into each other's eyes on the poster and a short glimpse of Kesariya from the film sung by Arijit Singh is played in the backdrop.
Sharing the poster and the song, Ayan wrote - “Love is the Light!’
Part One: Shiva… is what this first chapter of Brahmāstra is now called.
But for the longest time, it used to be…
Part One: Love.
Because at its core, Brahmāstra is about the Energy of Love.
A Love - that spread like Fire, beyond the Movie, and into Life.
So here it is, our Love Poster !
The Time feels Right for it…
There is some extra love in the air these days ! :)
(And with it, a little piece of the magic of Kesariya, Pritam (Dada), Amitabh Bhattacharya, Arijit…)
Shiva & Isha.
Ranbir & Alia.
Love - The Greatest Astra!"
