Earlier this year, Karan Johar had confirmed that Shah Rukh Khan indeed has a special appearance in Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer Brahmastra. The superstar shot for the film at a popular studio in Mumbai and fans are excited to see him on the big screen after two long years irrespective of it being a special cameo. Karan was all praises for Shah Rukh and couldn't thank him enough to star in Brahmastra.

Meanwhile, Pinkvilla has revealed SRK's role in Brahmastra. A source told the entertainment portal, "Brahmastra is designed in such a way that each of these actors play a key role in the narrative. Ranbir's character meets each of them at different times of his quest to find the Brahmastra. While Nagarjuna plays an archaeologist, SRK essays the role of a scientist."

The source went on to say, "Nagarjuna, Shah Rukh and Dimple Kapadia are all aids to Ranbir's character at specific points in the plot and push the story ahead. All of them have clues leading Ranbir to the Brahmastra. The film opens with Shah Rukh's sequence. It's a long scene and SRK shot it over ten days at Film City earlier this year."

Brahmastra also stars Akkineni Nagarjuna, Dimple Kapadia and Mouni Roy in pivotal roles. They have extensively shot for the film in the past two years. Whereas, Amitabh Bachchan is one of the leading stars along with Ranbir and Alia. 

The fantasy drama is set to be a trilogy and the first instalment is releasing on December 4, 2020.
