In the clip, recorded by Alia, Ranbir is seen grueling Ayan about the delays in the film and incessantly asking the director about the film’s final release date.

Bachchan is also present in the video but he only reacts when Ayan says that he has a release date for “Brahmastra” part one and that is December 4, 2020.

“Soooooo.. this just happened! Brahmastra 04.12.2020.. promise,” Alia captioned the video.

The film, produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Fox Star Studios, will release in five languages — Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.

The movie was earlier set to come out in December 2019 but Ayan had postponed it to summer 2020, saying he needed more time in order to get the film’s VFX right.
