Karan Johar wants to hold Brahmastra trials; Star Studios veto the proposal and decline the idea August 31, 2022 at 12:22PM

It looks like the dark spell in Ranbir Kapoor’s career is over. His Shamshera, the first RK release in four years, bombed miserably. Now all hopes are pinned on Karan Johar’s Ayan Mukerji-directed Brahmastra which open on 9 September. Preview reports of the film are very encouraging. Those from the film fraternity who have seen Brahmastra can’t stop raving about it.

Karan Johar wants to hold Brahmastra trials; Star Studios veto the proposal and decline the idea

A source very close to Karan Johar reveals, “Karan has shown the film to those who opinion matters to him. Among those who have seen the film from within his fraternity are Shah Rukh Khan, S S Rajamouli, NTR Junior and Aditya Chopra. They cannot stop raving about the film. Of course Karan realizes that his friends from the entertainment industry praising Brahmastra does not amount to a mass acceptance of the work. Asli pareeksha toh tabb hogi jab junta dekhegi Brahmastra.” 

Apparently Karan Johar is keen to show the film to trial audiences. But his co-producers and distributors Star Studios, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures are strictly against the idea. 

“After burning his fingers with Liger, Karan wants to show the film to audiences outside the industry. He has realized the film fraternity won’t tell the truth about the quality of films. Karan Johar is super-confident about Brahmastra. He wants to hold pre-release ‘trial’ show for handpicked audiences who can offer do-able suggestions to better the film even at this late stage when the film’s release is two weeks away,” says a source close to Karan.

If only his co-producers would let him.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame...
