Ayan Mukerji Explains Why Isha Keeps Taking Shiva’s Name In Brahmastra

When
it
comes
to
Brahmastra,
two
things
are
currently
trending
on
social
media.
One
is
the
massive
box
office
collection
that
the
film
is
raking
in,
already
crossing
the
Rs
300-Crore
mark
in
two
weeks.
The
second
is
the
slew
of
memes
and
videos
that
are
flooding
social
media
handles
like
Instagram
and
Twitter.
While
the
digital
space
is
rife
with
the
movie’s
memes
and
fan
theories
for
future
instalments,
one
particular
section
of
social
media
is
obsessed
with
Alia
Bhatt’s
character
in
the
film,
Isha.

While
some
netizens
feel
disappointed
that
Alia
Bhatt
was
underutilized
in
Isha’s
character,
others
are
theorizing
about
the
role
she
will
play
in
part
2
of
the
franchise.
However,
many
find
it
amusing
that
Isha
constantly
takes
Shiva’s
(Ranbir
Kapoor)
name
in
the
film,
a
fact
well
displayed
by
mimicry
artist
Chandni
in
her
recent
Instagram
reel,
which
went
viral
within
a
few
minutes
of
uploading.

Reacting
to
the
viral
video,
Alia
Bhatt
in
an
interview
with
NDTV
said,
“That’s
one
of
my
favourites.
Chandni
imitates
me
very
well.
In
the
Alia
Brahmastra
meme,
she
is
talking
about
my
voice
and
she
is
outstanding.”
In
the
same
interview,
Ayan
Mukerji
explained
Isha’s
habit
of
taking
Shiva’s
name
by
saying
that
he
himself
has
the
same
habit
of
taking
people’s
names
while
talking
to
them.
That
habit
stayed
in
the
script
and
came
into
the
film
as
well.

Talking
about
the
memes
and
videos
surrounding
Brahmastra,
Ranbir
Kapoor
revealed
that
the
movie’s
team
has
a
group
chat
named
‘Brahmastra
Feedback’
where
they
share
memes,
videos,
and
criticisms
regarding
the
film.
He
said
that
instead
of
feeling
hurt,
the
whole
team
is
enjoying
the
process
as
such
discussions
only
occur
when
a
film
becomes
a
part
of
pop
culture.
