Brahmastra: Ayan, Karan Johar, and Alia Bhatt describe the many astras
On Wednesday, Alia Bhatt, Karan Johar, and Ayan Mukerji posted some brand-new images of the various astras (weapons) featured in their upcoming movie Brahmastra Part 1: Shiva on Instagram. Ayan can be seen introducing and breaking down the many astras that are part of the next movie, which hits theatres on September 9, in the nearly four-minute-long trailer with spectacular VFX images. Ranbir Kapoor and Alia are the leads of his magnum work. Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna, and Mouni Roy are also present in the movie.
“Although Brahmastra is a fictional work, I tried to express Indian spirituality in my own unique way by making this movie. On this very important day of Guru Purnima, I wanted to go a bit more in-depth into the idea of Brahmastra, a film that I personally discovered turning me into a lifelong student of the vast wisdom contained in our ancient Indian origins. As he posted the ‘vision of Brahmastra’ on Instagram, Ayan added, “Hope you guys appreciate our creativity.
Key concept arts from the ancient Indian astras, including Vanarastra, Nandiastra, Prabhastra, Jalastra, Pawanastra, and Brahmastra, are shown in the video’s opening credits. Ayan states in the video that “Brahmastra Part 1: Shiva is the first movie of this Astraverse” when discussing the “idea of the Astraverse” (a universe of astras). It opens with a vision of a group of sages engaged in intense meditation in the Himalayas during a mystical era in ancient India. The sages are granted “The Light of the Universe” for their meditation. It is referred to as “the most potent and pure force there is” by Ayan Mukerji.
He continued by describing how astras, which include all the various forces present in nature like “fire, wind, water, and earth,” were created from this “Braham-shakti.” He referred to them as the “Jal (water), Pawan (wind), and the Agny (fire) Astra.” He also discussed astras like the Vanarastra, “which can give to the person, who controls it, the ability of a Super Monkey,” that contain the abilities of various animals. The Nandiastra, according to him, “has the strength and might of a thousand bulls within it.” One astra, however, emerged last from “The Light of the Universe,” “bearing its collective,” and was given the title “Lord of All the Others” by the sages.
The Brahmansh, a hidden society that will exist among other men and use the power of these astras to achieve good for the world, are the guardians of the Brahmastra and have sworn to defend these astras. As time passes, both Brahmastra and humanity make development. The Brahmansh continues to exist in secret in our world today, passing down the astras from generation to generation, according to Ayan.
The next adventure-tale drama’s is set in modern-day India, according to the filmmaker who is also the screenwriter for it. We are in a very unique position, in my opinion, because no one has ever used old texts in this way.
Ayan added that Ranbir Kapoor’s Agni (fire) Astra character in Brahmastra is a “wonder” because he is a “astra himself.” “He is called after the God Shiva, who is the most inspirational to me personally, the most mystical, and the all-powerful.” The much awaited Brahmastra Part 1: Shiva trailer available as of June 15. The three-minute teaser demonstrated the epic scope of the movie by jam-packing a lot of aesthetically breathtaking moments.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”
In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.
What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”
This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”
Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.
Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.
When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”
“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
