Is a good chunk of Alia Bhat’s dialogue in Brahmastra just various inflections of 'Shiva'? Fans on Twitter think so

Long before the release of the Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer movie Brahmastra, the film was creating buzz across social media platforms. Though the film faced boycotts called almost every day and got entangled in controversy, Brahmastra is proving to be capable of standing its ground after its release. It’s seemingly bringing Bollywood out of its apparent plummet as far as the box office collection of Brahmastra suggests.

Ranbir Kapoor said he’s really ‘happy and proud’ for the director Ayan Mukerji whose relentless work made the film possible.
