Brahmastra, which will be a trilogy, features Ranbir Kapoor as Shiva who possesses a superpower in the form of ‘Fire Astra’. In the trailer, we see Ranbir’s Shiva revealing how fire never harms him. As the trailer progresses, it is revealed that Ranbir’s Shiva, Amitabh Bachchan’s Guru and Nagarjuna’s Anish are protecting Brahmastra from Mouni Roy, who plays the antagonist in the film.

Bollywood celebrities and fans had taken to social media and expressed excitement for the film. Anushka Sharma called “exciting.” “This is huge! A first for Hindi cinema. Feel such pride to finally see a glimpse of his spectacular vision. Truly a world like we have never seen before,” wrote Janhvi Kapoor. Ranbir’s sister Riddhima found the trailer “wow,” while Bhumi Pednekar wrote she “can’t wait” to watch the film soon.
