Ayan Mukerji‘s directorial Brahmastra – starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in lead roles, is without a doubt one of the most anticipated films for the last couple of years. Also starring Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy, and Nagarjuna Akkineni, the teaser of the September 2022 release was unveiled a few days ago and gave fans a sneak peek of the entire cast and their characters.

Now, in a recent interview, the Barfi actor opened up about the upcoming fantasy adventure film. Not just that, it even seems like he just compared it to Marvel saying Ayan was creating his own superhero world with his Astraverse. Read on to know all he said.

While interacting with Variety recently, Ranbir Kapoor spoke about the Ayan Mukerji‘s directorial, saying, “Brahmastra is deep rooted in Indian culture, and we had the opportunity to create our own Marvel, which Ayan is trying to do with his Astraverse. Any film, any good compelling story, made in your culture, in an authentic way, in a true form, will connect to a large audience.”

For those who don’t know, Brahmastra is a three-part fantasy epic.
