"...there is no Hindi film, Tamil film, Telugu film, there are Indian films. And there has to be that feeling, and we need to just give you that, to your audience, to the people that this is a film for you. It's for everyone. Because it genuinely is. Sometimes there is a feeling that's not for you, but that's not true," Alia said.
Earlier, in a statement on the occasion of Brahmstra's trailer launch, director Ayan Mukerji had said, "Marking the beginning of a new cinematic universe, The Astraverse, I believe Brahmastra is the kind of film that the country would feel really proud of. It touches on our roots; celebrates our rich culture and it takes us forward with our technology. The film is proudly Indian and Imaginative and bringing together some of Pan-India's most renowned names was a dream come true."
Brahmastra is all set to release in the theatres on September 9, 2022.
