Namit Malhotra Confirms Work On ‘Brahmastra 2’ After ‘Ramayana’ at CinemaCon 2026
“Ramayana” producer Namit Malhotra and Yash are at CinemaCon 2026 to promote their magnum opus. The producer spoke on several topics, and one of them was “Brahmastra 2.” Ayan Mukerji’s second part of the Astraverse film is about the love story of Dev and Amrita. He said that once he finishes work on “Ramayana,” he will start “Brahmastra 2,” a welcome piece of news for Ranbir fans who were eagerly awaiting an update on this. Malhotra said he will put his energy into the Astraverse next.
“Brahmastra: Part One - Shiva,” released in 2022 and made ₹431 crores at the box office. However, many claimed that it was not as big a hit as it should have been, given its budget. The fantasy movie took close to four years to get released after its conception. It was touted as Ayan Mukerji’s dream project. We will see Shiva battle Dev in an epic clash.
