And going with these figures, it is expected that the film will have strong second week too. The next weekend target for the film should be around Rs 35 crore, which if it manages to achieve, the movie will enter Rs 200 crore club within just ten days of its theatrical release.
Brahmastra is Ayan Mukerji’s passion project which he took more than a decade to conceptualise and realise. The movie also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy and Nagarjuna in other prominent roles, while superstar Shah Rukh Khan features in an extended cameo.
