Ranveer-Deepika confirmed for Brahmāstra- Part 2? Ft. Anupama Chopra & Anmol Jamwal | Film Companion

[@seemonjena659]

I so agree with this. And even though Hussain Dalal had done a decent job as a dialogue writer in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani he messed it up big time in Brahmastra. The dialogues just ruined the performance of the actors for me. I hope the dialogue writer is changed too.

Love Story adds to the Screenplay when it develops organically and doesn't hinder the goal of the protagonist. Also, audience should feel an evident chemistry between the lovers. I'd tell you, Chemistry between Munna & Circuit was better than Shiva & Isha.

[@Sun.Shine-]

Chemistry was just ok.

[@seemonjena659]

Deepika's chemistry with Ranbir and Ranveer is considered to be fire because she has done three movies with Ranbir and four with Ranveer. As someone has rightly pointed out its the dialogues that underwhelm the performance and not the chemistry between the lead actors. Personally I loved the moments in which Shiva was mesmerized with Isha and was completely transfixed when he saw her for the first time. The climax was also good when Shiva ran upto Isha amidst all the destruction and rashiya was playing as the background score.

Every film has a certain flavour. A superhero film is not supposed to deliver Satyajit ray level depth mixed with woody allen level nuanced story based cinematography .

Ranbir and Alia felt out of depth. While Ayan’s writing was a letdown in terms of the love story I feel like Ranbir and Alia too failed to portray magnetic chemistry and attraction in a fantastical way like divine paths crossing. Very few actors can elevate a weakly written script and add in their charm and pure acting chops. These two sadly aren’t and rely heavily on good writing and direction. Can’t believe a screen test wasn’t done.

[@Sun.Shine-]

It's like, if they are saying, then it is there lol 😂 Divine crossing was Shanti & Om in OSO. If it was 90s or 2000s SRK would've killed the character Shiva 🔥No one can play a deewana aashiq as him!

There are occassions where even someone like Rajkumar Rao has struggled because of a weak script like Fanny Khan. A good performance needs a solid script irrespective of your calibre.

[@seemonjena659]

This is a wrong notion. No matter how brilliant an actor you are it's difficult to elevate a weak script. Even in Gangubai Kathiawadi the second half felt a bit of a drag in a few parts but Alia Bhatt's performance was so powerful and nuanced that one could not help but admire her. Its not easy to do this everytime. Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are self-admittedly director's actors. The director is akin to an anchor of a ship. His vision has to be laser clear so that the actors can emote in a better way. If the storyline is deeply flawed there's nothing that an actor can do no matter how brilliant he or she is.

[@TheVg4]

Like Anmol said in one of his tweets, that no matter how much one analyses the film - the audience is enjoying it ! That's the validation a movie of this scale requires. Having said that, the core characters need to place a stronger connect with the audience for the upcoming instalments to work. Every character you introduce needs to have some role to play in taking the story forward. For example: What was the point of introducing Shiva's friends to us when all the very supposed to say is bantai bachi. What's their contribution in Shiva's journey? If nothing, don't introduce them! Why mention Isha being rich and Shiva being poor if there is no underlying context to it!! Fingers crossed for the second part !!

The story lacked soul and direction. The acting was also bad which no one has pointed out strangely. The dialogue delivery was so bad. And they made the whole movie about love being the most powerful but the love story lacked any depth. Even if it’s the destiny thing you have to commit to it which they didn’t. They wanted a modern cliche romantic story while also wanting audience to buy the old school destined to be with each other phenomenon. And because of that it was all over the place. We don’t feel anything for them or their love to believe that their love is more powerful than brahmastra. Ranbir was terrible for this role and i feel another actor would be more suited for this role. Dev seems a more interesting character and could be an amazing anti hero and i hope ranveer is the one who is signed up for it.

The underwhelming aspects that they described at the start of the discussion about poor dialogue writing, weak screenplay, love story taking up lot of space of the main plot, etc are enough to understand that it is a badly made movie. I don't know why people try too hard to defend this movie and pretend to be waiting for the second part. Most of Hollywood franchises ditch the idea of a sequel if their first part itself doesn't deliver properly. When you can't get the primary aspects of making a movie correct, forget about making a pathbreaking, superhero movie in Bollywood. VFX and CGI cannot save you. Also, one important point which critics don't actually bring out is that this movie was initially supposed to be inspired by Rumi (hence so much focus on the love story) and later moved to AstraVerse; I guess the makers were thinking of cashing in on the recent Hindutva wave in the country. This brings to my point that the movie took so many years to make was because the director himself wasn't sure how to bring about his idea in the movie and jumped from one plot to another. Tumbadd took 6-7 years to make, but it remained true to its core idea and we could see how well made that movie was.

Before Iron Man, Marvel didn't have any attempts at "MCU" or do their own movies so I don't know who told you that it happened. Blade, X-Men, X-2, Spider-Man 1, Spider-Man 2, all happened before the MCU (by different studios) and are to this date, considered to be better movies and scripts than most of what the MCU has pushed out. If anything, this apologia is pretty much the end of Indian Cinema, it seems, because people are willing to eat garbage and make excuses.

Iron Man was the first MCU movie. Brahmastra is the first Astraverse movie. You should actually be comparing Brahmastra to the first Iron Man. Bollywood has already tried this concept before, we had Mr India, Krishh and Ra One, so Brahmastra is not the first attempt. That’s an excuse people are using to defend the movie and ignore how bad it is. How many more “first attempts” are we going to tolerate from Bollywood?

[@AlphinTom]

Prithviraj Sukumaran, director of Lucifer, decided to start the pre-production work for the second part L2 Empuraan after spending all the time with the writer Murali Gopi and locking a script to the core. I wish bollywood with the big budget and actors can spend a little more effort into getting it right on paper first. It felt like Ayan went from his vision and imagination straight to shooting and creating the visual extravaganza. Another thing I felt was about editing, the movie opens with the introduction by Amitabh Bachchan but he is not shown, then it introduces Ranbir, quickly skips to introduce SRK, and before letting that exhilarating set piece settle down you are back to Ranbir and then his first sight of Alia. The visuals also change from a temple scene in Mumbai to a modern penthouse in Delhi and then again back. It was jarring. I wish if they opened the movie with the Scientist (SRK), in the modern setting of a Delhi penthouse, with no explanation of the astras and brahmansh. Then when that awesome SRK intro is over (obviously with better dialogues), and Mauniroy gets the piece of a rock (keep explanations for later) and finish by killing off SRK. (she found the scientist by herself so i guess she can find the artist too, it could have been a mole in brahmansh, who was in favor of Dev, to be revealed later), SRK possibly dies with the dialogues of light vs darkness and then you introduce Ranbir.. Take time to tell his story, meeting alia, develop love story and kesariya, only when he sees the news of Srks death on tv he gets the vision.. As his connection is with Dev, when mauni goes back to dev and talks about finding Artist only he gets the idea to go find Nagarjuna. And keep Nagarjuna as the protector of shiva and alia until shiva gets his full power, and he could have been killed by the possible mole in brahmansh. Shiva and alia escaping that car chase themselves was too good to be true without shiva having powers. Nagarjuna takes them to Amitabh and then he tells the story of brahmansh and astras.. Interval block could still happen, as Nagarjuna is fighting Mauniroy and other villain, the second guy attacks alia and ranbir protects her, but hurting her badly with fire. Then he could explore his fear for fire with Guru and take the time to explore his family story. Potentially while alia is getting healed, by power of brahmansh and he cant leave without her. And it could go on.... And they should have finished with showing a menacing Dev for real (Ranveer most likely). I wish also if shiva also had power of water (something unique in astraverse) combining abilities of both his parents. When Mauniroy uses it against his fire i wished for that. May be it could have been great reveal for Alia, as a possessor jala astra, and send by guru to find shiva. This movie has such a beautiful vision, budget and cast. Hope bollywood can improve the way it tells these stories.

I would say the biggest downfall of the film is the lack of emotional connection the audience has towards the characters, because they are so flat and one-dimensional. Had Ayan spent more time fleshing out the characters and adding depth and substance to them, the audience could have become more emotionally invested in them. I just felt nothing towards them. The whole film I felt indifferent, like I really didn’t care if Shiva and Isha lived or died because I barely even knew them in the first place and I wasn’t able to root for them on their journey. Junoon’s character was also one-dimensional and her motives were not well developed either so it was hard to even care about if she gets the Brahmastra, because we don’t even know who she is or why she is doing this. The supporting characters were also wasted, the first part should have been all about introducing and establishing the supporting characters. The Pandavas in the Brahmansh should have been developed more and their team should have been established as characters the audience care about and root for, yet there was none of that. They are just random people. They each have like 1 or 2 lines each. The team in any fantasy series is super important and should be at the forefront, they should be able to connect to the audience, yet all of this character-building took a backseat to an unnecessarily forced love story and VFX laser show. The movie lacked heart and soul and that humanistic quality that would have kept us emotionally invested in the story.

Top notch VFX and CGI. Great score and music overall. Cool action sequences. Interesting setup for the sequel. Does have flaws but there always is room for improvement. As much as people hated the love story aspect and Alia Bhatt's overpresence in the movie, I think Shiva needed Isha particularly for the climax to channel his powers in order to save the world or to save Isha since Shiva can trigger his powers through Isha. Srk's character being named Mohan is what feels like an 'easter egg' since Ayan was the assistant director for Swades. I feel that Ayan should've kept Mohan for longer so that he could maybe team up and meet Guruji(Big B) and Artist(Nagarjuna). I also feel that Vanarastra(Srk) was underpowered given what they could've done with the potential of that Astra, atleast visually. We should give this movie a chance but with an open mind because Ayan and the team of Brahmastra have spent a decade to not only create this particular movie but to create the Astraverse despite various challenges and setbacks and this is the first time that a movie of this scale and magnitude is coming from India. The setup for the sequel is actually good and I am very hopeful to see the necessary changes for the second movie in the Trilogy. Great attempt overall and a great leap for more Vfx and CGI driven movies from India!

As you (should) know, the MCU became the MCU because it focused on the core heroic characters (and their supporting allies) and prioritized establishing winning cinematic variations on its marquee characters. It treated the interconnectivity as a seasoning or a garnish. Part One - Shiva is entirely interested in generic world-building with almost no time and energy given to specificity. It banks on the abstract concept of superheroes and cinematic universes (with generic lore that is randomly cobbled together from Marvel, The Last Airbender, Lord of the Rings and Star Wars), arriving in theaters in 2022 like a mistake from 2018.
