"#Brahmastra advance is off to a FANTASTIC start, over ₹ 52K tickets are sold at Multiplex chains, 1-1.5 lakh are on cards by 8th Sep.Hindi audience were demanding a film which is rooted,inspired from our rich history & culture.

Likewise, according to AndhraBoxOffice.com, 'Brahmastra's advance booking data shows a good start. "#Brahmastra advance has been off to a Good Start (Primarily 3D). The film has to maintain same momentum leading upto Day 1 and open with ‘at-least’ ₹30 Cr+ Day 1 Nett for the Ultra High Costs involved. 2D Bookings will hold key to post the required numbers."
'83 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 sold approximately 1.05 lakh and 1.03 lakh tickets at the national chains, and it remains to be seen when Brahmastra goes past this prestigious mark.Reportedly, the film is showing a good pan-India feel, given that tickets are selling out fast across demographics in India.
According to a Pinkvilla report, given the early trends, 'Brahmastra' can cross the advance bookings figure of films like "Shamshera, Prithviraj, Raksha Bandhan and even Laal Singh Chaddha by maximum Sunday noon and the hope will be on it to zoom past the overall advance of ‘Jug Jugg Jeeyo’ and Gangubai by end of Sunday in the national chains."
'Brahmastra' is a three-part fantasy epic starring Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna and Mouni Roy. The film is slated to release on September 9, 2022.
