'Brahmastra Part One : Shiva' As the title of the film suggests, the story of Shiva is presented in Brahmastra, the first film in the Astraverse. After a long wait, Bollywood's most expensive film Brahmastra has hit the theaters. The film's director Ayan Mukherjee introduces the history of Brahmastra to the audience in the very beginning of the film as told in the promo videos released before the release.After that, the life of Shiva, the main character of the film is entered. As told in the trailer of Brahmastra, the story moves forward focusing on some unusual events that take place in the life of Shiva, who lives an ordinary life. It is also worth mentioning that he falls in love with a girl named Isha during his life journey.Similar to Ayan Mukherjee's earlier films, the heroine's character and romance are heavily emphasized in Brahmastra. Alia Bhatt has played the heroine Isha. It was on the sets of Brahmastra that Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor fell in love. The effect of the love that happened between them in real life gives a special beauty to the love scenes in the film.The superhit song Kesariya is also becoming a major attraction for the audience watching the film.It is this love between them that becomes an important turning point in the plot of the film. Hence, even in the passionate climactic fight of the film, this love plays a huge role. As mentioned above, the first half of Brahmastra moves in the style of a typical Bollywood film with romance and small humorous scenes. The main story of the film is entered in the second half.But there are some exciting scenes in the first half as well. Nagarjuna's character should be mentioned in it. The character has been portrayed in a good way in the film, although there is little. Another thing that needs to be mentioned in the first half is Shahrukh Khan's cameo appearance which has become the most talked about topic even before the release of the film.

The role is becoming one of the most appealing elements in Brahmastra.Right from the start of the film, Mouni Roy's character of Kodura villain and the evil forces that accompany her are well portrayed. Mouni Roy handled her role very well. Mouni Roy's character Junoon is likely to be discussed more than Ranbir Kapoor's character in the coming days and there are going to be many fan theories.In the second half of the film, Amitabh Bachchan's character and the main plot of the film come into play. But love, which was one of the biggest positives in the first half of the film, turns negative in the second half. The re-enactment of romance in the second half was a major setback for the audience who were expecting more exciting action scenes than the first half.Apart from this, the length of the film is also a big negative which is felt in the second half.

But the scenes, 3D effects and VFX that Indian cinema has never seen before give the film a great visual beauty. Perhaps if you watch this movie in 2D, you won't be able to enjoy many scenes.Brahmastra Part One: Shiva ends with many questions left even about the villainous group that includes Mouni Roy. The film ends with a hint that the second part is coming soon. Perhaps this film ends in a way that is not perfect in many ways to make the audience wait for the second part.In any case, it is likely that there will be fan theories about the film among the audience in the coming days and it will become a big discussion on social media, similar to what we used to see in Marvel films before this.A big shortcoming of the superhero films released in India like Krrish and Enthiran before this is that they are based on the characters of many Hollywood films that we are used to seeing and some iconic films. But the film Brahmastra is an Indian original story created entirely from Indian conditions. This is the biggest positive of Brahmastra.Perhaps if this film succeeds, Astroverse will emerge from India as an alternative to Marvel in Hollywood.
