Ranbir Kapoor Refutes Rumours Of Brahmastra’s Huge Budget, Says, ‘It’s All Wrong’
Earlier, Kangana Ranaut questioned Brahmastra's success by claiming that the film's true budget is as high as Rs 650 crore.
New Delhi: After the release of Brahmastra: Part One - Shiva, Ranbir Kapoor finally addresses the budget of his new epic adventure. In addition to its critical acclaim, the film is doing very well at the box office. It has been widely reported that the budget of Brahmastra’ is Rs 410 crore. Earlier, actress Kangana Ranaut questioned Brahmastra's success by claiming that the film's true budget is as high as Rs 650 crore.
As speculation has swirled over the amount of money spent on the Astraverse movie, Ranbir Kapoor has broken his silence to insist that the stated estimates are incorrect.
In an interview with Dainik Bhaskar, Ranbir explained the box office success of the film and its rumored budget, saying, “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 Kapoor also clarified that the assets will be used throughout the trilogy. They've got their settings ready to go for Part Two and Three. He said, “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 parts 2 and part 3. With part 1, Ayan had to learn how to make this kind of a film.”
The total net earnings of Brahmastra in India so far exceed Rs 200 cr. The film is the first of a planned trilogy, but its claimed budget is far more than its current total earnings, so some reviewers are suspicious about its ability of the film to recoup.
