Brahmastra lights up the Kumbh Mela sky: Ali, Ranbir watch on in awe

The makers of Brahmastra had earlier put out a cryptic tweet that the team has something to reveal today at the Kumbh Mela

The cast and crew of Brahmastra including Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor and Ayan Mukerji all set out for the Kumbh Mela to announce something about their upcoming film Brahmastra. While we don't have many details about the film yet, we're curious to know what the team might have in store for the audience. 

Here's what Dharma had tweeted about the big reveal:

This #Mahashivratri, get ready to witness the magic of #Brahmastra! Don’t forget to tune in. #Kumbh2019@SrBachchan #RanbirKapoor @aliaa08 @iamnagarjuna #AyanMukerji @karanjohar @apoorvamehta18 #NamitMalhotra @FoxStarHindi @BrahmastraFilm pic.twitter.com/S82l7kdia2

Alia Bhatt, Nagarjuna Akkineni, Amitabh Bachchan, Karan Johar and Apoorva Mehta too had tweeted about the big surprise. At sharp 7:30 pm, the Brahmastra team lit up the sky at the Kumbh Mela, quite literally. With the help of 150 drones and brilliant tech support, the team revealed the logo or the 'astra' of Brahmastra. 

We got an FB Live grab of the 'astra'. Check it out!

And here are Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor looking on at the amazing spectacle:

Ayan Mukerji, who has just made his Instagram debut, posted two pictures promoting Brahmastra.
