Ranbir Kapoor explains why 'Brahmastra' budget was so huge
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,September 21 2022]
Ayan Mukerji's passion project 'Brahmastra' has turned out to be a box office success as it has collected around 360 crore rupees so far. However, the film was made on a budget of more than 400 crores so it still has some way to cover before breaking even. For this reason precisely, several people are questioning the hit status of 'Brahmastra' as the film hasn't really made any profit despite its amazing box office run.
In a recent media interaction, Ranbir Kapoor addressed this issue and shared that the commercial aspect of 'Brahmastra' is different from other films and most of its budget is supposed to be divided between three films of the trilogy instead of just this one.
The actor told Dainik Bhaskar, “These days, we are reading a lot where people are discussing the budget of the film. People are saying this much is the budget and this much is the recovery. But Brahmastra is unique being where the budget is not just for one film but for the whole trilogy.
Ranbir added, “So, the assets we have created for the film, like the fire VFX or effects for other superpowers, they will be used in three films. So, it’s not like the figures floating around, whether it’s hundred rupees or two hundred rupees, are correct. It’s all wrong. The economics of this film is not like the economics of other films that have been made in our industry. Now, we can easily go into part 2 and part 3. With part 1, Ayan had to learn how to make this kind of a film.”
