'Brahmastra' director Ayan Mukherjee with lead actors Ranbir and Alia Bhatt was also present at the event. After unveiling the official poster of the much-anticipated movie, Ranbir got emotional and recalled his conversation with his father about the film that was under production for more than eight years. "I miss my father terribly today. I remember during the making of the film, he kept fighting with Ayan and me and kept questioning us.
'What are you guys doing? Who takes so long to make a film? Who spends so much money? Ranbir, you are not making a penny on this film. Nobody watches a VFX film in the country?' But I believe he is here somewhere and I hope he is proud. I hope he is smiling," Ranbir said. Ranbir then asked the audience in attendance to join him as he paid tributes to the late legendary star, who died in 2020 fighting his long battle with cancer.
