BRAHMASTRA TO RELEASE IN 102 SCREENS IN KERALA
Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt’s Brahmastra is one of the long-pending projects in Bollywood. Directed by Ayan Mukerji, Brahmastra is a trilogy.

According to trade analyst Sreedhar Pillai, Brahmastra will be screened in 102 screens across Kerala during Onam (harvest festival in the state). He took to Twitter and wrote, “#Brahmastra gets 102 screens (so far) in #Kerala, despite multiple Malayalam #Onam releases and theatre owners reluctant to screen Hindi films! In fact last big Hindi film was released only in 27 screens! (sic).”

This is the highest screen count for a Hindi film in recent times. Last time, when a Hindi film released, it was screened in just 27 screens.
