SCOOP: Disney+ Hotstar eyes Brahmastra for OTT premiere; Karan Johar declines the offer November 23, 2020 at 10:00AM

One of the most awaited films of 2021, Brahmastra, produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, has been in the making for a long time. If the pandemic had not happened, this flick would have released a few weeks from now, on December 4. However, it has now been postponed to 2021. Hence, viewers will get to see it almost 4-5 years after its official announcement.

SCOOP: Disney+ Hotstar eyes Brahmastra for OTT premiere; Karan Johar declines the offer

Brahmastra also happens to be the last film in the line-up of Fox Star Studios. It has released all its other pending films like Dil Bechara, Lootcase, Sadak 2 and Laxmii on Disney+ Hotstar. Laxmii, released on November 9, starred superstar Akshay Kumar and a lot of hopes were pinned on the horror comedy. Sadly, the film got terrible reviews and also it didn’t attain the desired number of eyeballs. A source says, “Disney+ Hotstar has now asked Fox Star Studios if they can hand over Brahmastra for their streaming platform. What it means is, Disney+ Hotstar wants Brahmastra to bypass theatrical release and arrive on its platform directly. They feel Brahmastra is a keenly awaited biggie and if it gets premiered on their platform, it’ll fetch them record streams.”

The source continues, “Producer Karan Johar, however, has not shown interest. He believes that the VFX heavy, grand film would be best enjoyed in cinemas.”

Brahmastra was launched as a trilogy and with Fox Star Studios shutting shop, the question arises - what is the fate of the second and third part of the franchise? A source says, “As of now, there are no talks on the Brahmastra sequels. All the efforts of Dharma Productions and Fox Star Studios are on completing the first part. The shoot of the film is to get over this month after which the team will fully concentrate on the post-production.” The source continues, “Though Fox Star Studios is exiting the business, the upcoming parts might still be made. Karan Johar is looking forward to the response to the first part. If it emerges a success, he’ll go ahead with the trilogy as planned but maybe with some other studio.”

Brahmastra stars Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt along with Amitabh Bachchan and Nagarjuna in supporting roles. Mouni Roy reportedly plays the antagonist. It is directed by Ayan Mukerji, who has proved his brilliance with Wake Up Sid (2009) and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) in the past.

The city of Patna boycotts Salman Khan over actor's suicide June 23, 2020 at 10:50AM

Patna-born Bollywood star Sushant Singh Rajput has attained a much larger stardom after his sudden and shocking suicide on June 14, than before. While his death has triggered off a massive outrage against the spirit of nepotism that prevails in Mumbai’s film industry, the ramifications of the tragedy can be felt and heard far and wide across India. In Patna, the capital city of Bihar where Rajput was born, the people have taken a vow to ban superstar Salman Khan, filmmaker Karan Johar and actress Alia Bhatt as these are seen to be emblems of the clannish culture in Mumbai that prevented Sushant Singh Rajput from realizing his full potential in Hindi cinema. Since Sunday Bihar has been plunged into a state of relentless grief and anger over the death of their star-son Rajput who ended his life at the age of 34, allegedly because of what has come to be known as the ‘nepo(tism) gang’ in Mumbai. On Thursday hordes of young Rajput fans in Patna marched to Salman Khan’s Being Human clothes...
