Not Brahmastra 2, Dhoom 4 To Kickoff First?
According to an exclusive report by Peeping Moon, Ayan Mukerji, who was set to commence pre-production of Brahmastra 2, has set the project aside and is now focusing on another high-profile project.
According to the report, a source revealed to the portal that Yash Raj Films has signed Ayan for Dhoom 4, with Ranbir Kapoor in the lead.
The source revealed that filmmaker Aditya Chopra has entrusted Ayan with Dhoom 4, which introduces new characters and a new format. Though Ayan was earlier hesitant to take on the action-packed movie, he couldn't say no to Aditya and Ranbir. The source informed that Ayan will immediately start working on rebooting the iconic action franchise after the release of War 2 on August 14.
Did Ayan Face Financial Hurdles For Brahmastra 2?
Further, the report also suggests that Ayan decided to put the second chapter of his trilogy on the back burner due to financial hurdles. While the rights of Brahmastra remain with Dharma Productions, the production house is reluctant to allocate a substantial budget for the project. Even though the Brahmastra franchise is a passionate project for both Ayan and Ranbir, considering the current market conditions, the filmmaker decided to put the project on hold and focus on Dhoom 4.
