Overview
- Multiple Indian entertainment outlets reported in August 2026 that director Ayan Mukerji and his team have moved Brahmastra 2 into active scripting and pre‑production.
- Reports say Ranbir Kapoor is expected to finish shooting Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana: Part 2 by January 2027 and then begin principal photography for Brahmastra 2 in April 2027.
- Industry sources cited by several outlets say Ranbir would play a dual role as Shiva and Dev in the sequel, a shift that would place those characters at the centre of the story.
- Coverage consistently states Alia Bhatt is expected to reprise Isha in a much smaller, extended appearance reported at about 25 days of shooting, while Deepika Padukone is in talks for the key role of Amruta but has not been signed.
- Some reports give production details such as an approximate 125‑day shoot, but outlets note these figures and casting items come from unnamed industry sources and have not been officially confirmed by the filmmakers.
