In fact, after crossing the Rs. 100 cr mark, Brahmastra crossed even the Rs. 200 cr mark within just 10 days of its release. With Brahmastra doing well at the box office, Alia Bhatt seems to be on a roll this year.
In this box office report, we look at Alia Bhatt’s box office graph for the year 2022.
