In another interview, Ayan opened up on the budget of Brahmastra. Mukerji said, "Brahmastra is a big-budget movie. When we started to create Brahmastra, we were not creating just part 1. It was an investment that we were making in the trilogy and in parts 2 and 3. So, a lot of the cost that we invested in part 1 is also invested in setting up the foundation, the writing, building assets, and the concept work on Part 2 and Part 3." Brahmastra has entered into its 3rd week, and the film is competing with Sunny Deol, Dulquer Salmaan starrer Chup.
