Brahmastra is one of the most anticipated Indian films this year. Team Brahmastra recently had a special fan event at Vizag where Ranbir Kapoor, SS Rajamouli and Ayan Mukherji launched a trailer announcement teaser. The video was more like a cast announcement teaser and a glimpse of the world of Brahmastra. The teaser was received really well by some, while some had contrasting opinions to give.
Not only did the snippet grab millions of views everywhere, it was also trending on #1 on YouTube for straight two days. Anyways we are not talking about the teaser reception. There’s something else that we noticed. The team unceremoniously pulled out the trailer announcement video clip from every account yesterday. From social media accounts of Alia Bhatt, Ayan Mukherji to youtube page of Dharma Productions. Soon after, an edited version of the video was re-uploaded.
According to sources, the teaser didn’t go well with a certain ‘someone’. Now what’s different in the new version? Well.. Well.. Amitabh Bachchan‘s name pops up before Ranbir Kapoor in this one. It’s just that and it’s true. The team took down a trending video clip from every platform there is, only to correct it’s cast-billing. Either Team Brahmastra should have consulted all its cast and crew before launching the teaser or they should have simply let go this time. Unplanned and vague actions like these prove detrimental to any film. Let’s hope the silly doesn’t repeat post trailer release.
