Brahmastra was delayed by many years and could release only last year and went on to become his biggest blockbuster. It is Ranbir and wife Alia Bhatt's first film together and is actually the film that brought them together in real life.
Talking about how the film reminds him of the last months of his father, Ranbir told PTI in an interview, “When my father was suffering from cancer and was going through his treatment, I was working on Brahmastra and Shamshera at that time. When I see Brahmastra now, there are amazing memories, but there are certain scenes I see and I get reminded of moments... like 'Oh! At this time, he was having chemotherapy or he was on a ventilator...'”
In the same interview, he also talked about how Rishi Kapoor's death affected him. He said, “The biggest thing that happens in an individual's life is when you lose one of your parents. That really is something... Especially when you're nearing your 40s, that's the time when something like this usually happens... Nothing prepares you for that, but it brings the family closer. It makes you understand life.”
