Director Ayan Mukerji added that the journey of bringing Brahmāstra to life has been ‘very exciting and challenging one’. He said that he’s truly grateful to audiences all over the world who have embraced the film with their overwhelming love and support. “Brahmāstra is a grand celebration of our rich Indian culture, of our spirituality, and a product of where our unique history meets technology.”
