Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor starrer Brahmastra is the most anticipated film of 2022. The makers have been creating a lot of curiosity among the audience with the trailer, teaser and all the other promo videos and posters. Now, the director Ayan Mukerji has dropped another video related to the film that explains this new world that he has created.

The video begins by introducing all the Astra (weapons) from the Astraverse including Vanarastra, Nandi Astra, Prabhastra, Jalastra, Pawanastra and Brahmastra. Ayan enters the montage and starts explaining how his team has been building a foundation of a universal cinema based on the concept of Astras for the last few years. He called it the Astraverse.

He further explains, "Brahmastra part one is the first movie of this Astarverse and it begins with an image from a mystical time in ancient India. Where a group of Sejas are performing deep meditation in the Himalayas. And for their meditation, the sages are blessed with The Light of the Universe. The most powerful and the most pure energy there is- a Brahmashakti. From this Brahmashakti all the Astras were born. Astras which have within them all the different energies that are found in nature. Fire, wind, water, earth. The Jal Astra, The Pawan Astra and The Agni Astra."

Moving on, he explains a few more Astras that have the power of animals within them such as Vanarsastra, which is packed with the power of a super monkey and the Nandi Astra, which has the power and strength of a thousand bulls.

In the end, he introduced the Brahmastra and how it was made. "The lord of all the others, which sages name after one of the powerful weapons of our Gods," she informed. Meanwhile, he also unveiled that the sages called themselves the Brahmansh as the guardians of these Astras (weapons).
