No more ‘wood’ here, Brahmastra is an Indian movie: Karan Johar
It’s been a long time since the cinema world and the audience started moving away from the hype that Indian cinema means Hindi cinema. Bollywood is going through a bigger crisis than any other language.
On the one hand, the threat of boycott for any film release, films that fail to gain much popularity or critical attention in terms of content and making, and on the other hand, the huge success of South Indian films – Bollywood has many hurdles in front of it.
It is in this context that director and producer Karan Johar’s words about Bollywood are being discussed.
Karan Johar said that Brahmastra is not only a part of Hindi cinema but also belongs to Indian cinema. He was speaking at a function held in connection with the release of Brahmastra.
Bollywood and Tollywood have no place anymore. All cinema is a part of Indian cinema. So is Brahmastra. This is not a Hindi film, it is an Indian film,’ said Karan Johar.
After a long wait, Brahmastra, which comes in the mythical genre, is hitting the theaters. The movie is releasing on September 8. The first part of the two-part film is titled ‘Brahmastra Part One: Shiva’.
Starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in lead roles, the film also stars Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan and South Indian stars including Nagarjuna.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the film is produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Star Studios. The songs of the film were very popular.
Brahmastra will be available in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam languages. SS Rajamouli will present Brahmastra in South Indian languages including Malayalam.
