I have seen Ayan invest time in making Brahm?stra, patiently putting it together to get it right, much like I did for Bahubali,” Rajamouli said in a statement.

“The film perfectly marries themes from ancient Indian culture with modern technology, and with cutting edge VFX that will blow your mind! A filmmaking journey that I can relate to - Ayan’s vision is a new chapter in Indian cinema and I am proud to be associated with Dharma Productions once again after Bahubali.

Actor Nagarjuna who was also present on the occasion said: “It has been a fantastic experience to work with Ayan and the hugely talented team of Brahmastra. This combination of ancient and modern India fascinated me and it is exciting to be a part of such a larger than life project.

"To have Rajamouli on board is a great honour for all of us and I am looking forward to presenting the film to my fans in 2022.”“Brahmastra is a dream that I have been nurturing for years," Ayan Mukerji said.

"It’s an ambitious trilogy and the journey so far has been nothing short of exhilarating. I have given this film everything and I will continue to pour my heart into this. I feel blessed to have an amazing mentor like S.S. Rajamouli sir come on board. It is his film, Bahubali, that gave me the confidence to pursue my dream courageously. And to have his name attached to Brahmastra is the biggest endorsement.”(UNI)
