It's a second chance to see the strength of light and love and their battle with darkness. With the OTT premiere of Brahmastra Part One: Shiva, one of the biggest movies of the year, Disney+ Hotstar shows how powerful the mighty astras can be. The spectacular event can be seen again in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, or Malayalam, depending on the viewer's preference. The magnum opus, which will be released on November 4, 2022, is made by Star Studios and Dharma Productions, and it is directed and written by Ayan Mukerji.

Mouni Roy, who plays the tough and strong Junoon in the action-adventure fantasy movie, talked about getting real praise for her role as a villain in the movie before it was released online.

In a statement, the actor said that she felt rather overwhelmed by all the support she was receiving. According to the actor who captivated the hearts of the audience, it's extremely thrilling for her that there is so much interest in Junoon and so many inquiries about who she is.

It is difficult to connect with the audience as the villain in a project of this size, so to have done so is both satisfying and humbling for Roy. Mukerji gave the actor the chance to play such a great part, and she will always be grateful to him for that.

Many people who watched the film expressed that Roy was a top performer in the film, which also featured Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in the lead roles. When asked about the reactions, the actor had earlier told Pinkvilla that she's the greatest fan of Ranbir and Alia. The two of them were a total delight to deal with. She finds it impossible to even imagine such a thing. In her opinion, they both seem to be on fire on screen. Roy called them wonderful, modest, kind, and good people.
