The film drew huge crowds in the metro cities, especially in the multiplexes.
The film, whose release has been preceded by tremendous hype among the audiences, saw a huge occupancy in even morning shows, showing the craze for the film among the cinegoers.
Given the huge craze for the film, trade experts feel that it could earn an opening weekend figures of Rs 100 cr.
It is the highest opening taken by a Ranbir Kapoor film.
Trade observers say that the huge opening taken by the film is largely due to its grand look and it's breathtaking special effects which lend a Hollywoodesque feel to it.

The world of Shiva an DIsha is turned upside down when Shiva learns that he has a mysterious connection to the Brahmastra, the most powerful and deadly divine weapon of the God's. Shiva also discovers a great power within him - the power of fire.
The film will take viewers into Shiva’s adventures as he journeys into the World of Astras and discovers his destiny as the divine hero of the universe.
BRAHMĀSTRA – the Trilogy, is a 3-part film franchise and the beginning of India’s first original universe The Astraverse
Set in modern day India, Brahmastra tells the story of a secret society Brahmansh, who have protected many divine astras, created in ancient India, over several generations and safeguarded them from the eyes of the world .
BRAHMASTRA, the most powerful and the most deadly amongst these divine weapons; the Lord of all the Other Astras - named after the most powerful weapon of the Gods, is now waking up. And it threatens to completely destroy the universe we know today.
Produced by Star Studios, Dharma Productions, Prime Focus and Starlight Pictures and directed by Ayan Mukherjee, Brahmastra Part one is releasing theatrically on September 9 in 5 Indian languages – Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
Being presented by S S Rajamouli in four South Indian languages- Tamil , Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam-Brahmastra features an ensemble cast of Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Mouni Roy and Nagarjuna Akkineni.
The makers of the film released its trailer earlier this year.
Director Ayan Mukherji says that Brahmastra marks the beginning of a new cinematic universe, The Astraverse..
“Marking the beginning of a new cinematic universe, ‘The Astraverse’, I believe Brahmāstra is the kind of film that the country would feel really proud of. It touches on our roots; celebrates our rich culture and it takes us forward with our technology. The film is proudly Indian and Imaginative and bringing together some of Pan-India’s most renowned names was a dream come true,'he says.
Announced in the year 2014, Brahmastra has been shot in locations including Bulgaria, London, New York, Edinburgh, and Varanasi. Production and release of the film was delayed multiple times due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The excellent response to the film comes as a boost to film trade which has witnessed several big budget Bollywood films released in cinemas in the last few months fail to generate a good response from the audiences.
Infact, barring The Kashmir Files, Sooryavanshi, Bhool Bhulaiya2 and Jug Jugg Jeeyo, most Hindi films released in cinemas in recent months have failed to set the box office on fire, spreading a gloom in the film world.
