Behind the scenes of Alia-Ranbir's Brahmastra

Just what are Ranbir and Alia doing?

Since the time Brahmastra, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, was announced, everyone's curious to know more.

Initially titled Dragon, the superhero film is directed by Ayan Mukerji, Ranbir's BFF.

The shooting is on, and going by the pictures posted on Instagram, AB&RK seem to be having a great time.

I would never Imagine all the hard work these guys are going through, and I am sure this movie will hit the screens like the sun hits the (earth).'
